Question domicileI am recently divorced and going through a nasty custody battle. My ex has domicile custody which i am appealing. That is a long story. He has a new girlfriend. She does everything for him for our daughter to include....runs errands, takes our daughter clothes shopping, makes her dr appts, goes to the school and pays to order a set of school pictures,has the softball coach calling her with all my daughter's needs. She also texted my daughter 65 times in 10 days (10 less than her Dad did all month) and called her for over thirty minutes. I pay for the cellphone. i told her to stop and then blocked her number. I have informed the coach's wife, who doe the phone calling, that this woman has no legal rights to my child and do not want her to be given info about our daughter. But the lady doesn't seem to get it and continues to not call me at all but calls the girlfriend. I know the school broke the law when they spoke with her (she lets people think she is the stepmom). But aren't all these other people breaking my daughter's privacy rights oncve I have told them not to speak with her and they continue to? And what can I do??
Answer Sandi:
DISCLAIMER:
I AM NOT A LAWYER or ATTORNEY. I am someone who has experience with family law issues, and am sharing my OPINION only. For the exact law as it pertains to your specific case contact a Professional Attorney in your area/county.
If you want to stop 'the new girlfriend' then it will be necessary to hire a Professional Attorney: Most Attorneys offer 1/2 free consultation time to discuss case and payment options.
Once you hire the Attorney obtain if possible a restraining order against new girlfriend. Then have the findings along with new order presented to school and coach: Then they must obey the restraining order.
The coach has no say in the matter especially when the issue is between Mom and Dad, sorry. The school can do nothing because of it is a 'civil matter between Mom and Dad', sorry.
