Re: fighting visitation
That depends on where the child lives now and how long he or she has lived where they are.
You need to contact an attorney.

Maybe. The UCCJA is a law which states that jurisdiction for visitation may at the option of the judges be held where the children have lived for the past 6 months, or the court where the original order was filed. It is up to the courts. You will probably need a lawyer to assist you .
