I hope someone out there has experience with the joint-custody melodrama. Allow me to introduce the other players in this fiasco.
Brett: Convicted felon, wife beater, drug user, in and out of various rehabs, can't hold a job, child molestor, etc.
Liz: The aboves newest fiance. Second one in a year.
Riley: The fiance's 14 year old in and out of juvenille son.
We woke up yesterday morning with difficult child saying her "father" would be here in 45 minutes. This was never agreed upon and it was our weekend. We explained to difficult child why she wouldn't be going who then proceeded to rage all over the house. Their first email is from about 9:30 a.m. right after the incident. The bold email is our response. We haven't replied back, but forwarded to the lawyer for another incident of them violating the parenting plan.

I asked you last Sunday if it was ok if Sammy could come over for Riley's birthday, I thought you said it was all right. I said we would pick her up and drop her off. Is this not ok now? We would like to pick her up in about 30 minutes as we have to pick up my nieces as well.
Thanks

As we discussed February 10th, I said Samantha could attend the birthday. This was based on the condition that you would email me the times she would be picked up and returned as you said you would. This didn't happen. Thusly, I concluded that the plans were no longer in effect.
As the past emails and lawyers have clearly stated, a minimum of 24 hours to changes to any plans is required.
Please do not ask questions about shared custody in front of Samantha as was done last Sunday. I find this irresponsible and inappropriate. We are supposed to communicate through email, not in front of Samantha or through her.

Our attorney has said that we are due make up visitation for all of the 48 hours visits we were due during the investigation. Paid visits were 2 hours, so by our calculation we are due 3 months of make up visits. There was no harm done with me asking if Sam if she could come to Riley's birthday in front of her, we were not asking for anything out of line. If you want to get the lawyers involved again that is fine but we would think we can work this out as adults. Whatever your problem is you need to get over it. If you want to go back to court to have make up visitations, determined by the courts let us know and we will contact our attorney however, in the mean time there is no restraining order and we will see Sam every other weekend and she is old enough to understand that you are the one being difficult.
Also remember we let you keep Sam the weekend of her birthday to be helpful to you as you all ready had the party planned we could have very well said no the "parenting plan" said it is Brett's year to spend Sam's birthday with her.
I have cc'd our attorney so she has a heads up if you wish to be difficult and have the courts decide the make visitation schedule. Which also if that needs to be done we will also be taking steps to have the parenting plan revised at that time to have more visitation and day to day decision if Samantha's activities.
