Visitation
Visitation Rights in Rhode Island
If you do not have placement of your child who resides in Rhode Island, you may have the right to visitation with your child. The a parent who has placement of a child cannot deny you this right unless there is a court order stating otherwise.
If you and the other parent cannot agree on visitation, you can file a motion with the court. The court will then set up a visitation schedule based on what it believes to be what is in the best interest of the child.
If you have any questions about visitation rights in Rhode Island, you should contact an experienced family law attorney for help.
What happens if the other parent does not comply with the visitation order?
If the other parent does not comply with the visitation order, you can file a motion with the court for enforcement. The court may then take various actions to enforce the order, including ordering make-up time, changing custody, fining the non-compliant parent or in some instances, ordering that the child be placed with the parent requesting visitation.
Parents are given multiple chances to follow a visitation schedule, but if the other parent continually does not comply, the court may limit or terminate their visitation rights.
It is important to note that you should always contact an experienced family law attorney before taking any legal action. An attorney can help you understand your rights and options, and they can represent you in court.
