What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? TN
My ex-husband has just filed contempt of court charges against me and is trying to to get full custody.
We have a 14-year old boy, 15-year-old girl, and 17-year-old boy. They do not want to spend time with him, because of all that he has done to hurt us. They have been refusing visitation for almost a year.
I recently married a great man, but who has made mistakes in the past. He is currently in prison serving two years for sexual battery against a girl on his soccer team, but his crime was 5 years ago, and I think she was just as much to blame as he was. My ex-husband did everything he could to get him prosecuted for this, and now my ex is trying to use it against me to get full custody.
My question is, how much is my husbands past going to be a factor with the courts? The girl was 16-years-old (even though the court wrongly said she was 15-years-old), and like I said it was 5 years ago. He also has another conviction last year for theft of trade secrets, and he is on probation for that, but he didn't really steal anything. It was just a larger company trying to attack his smaller company. I'm sure my ex-husband will try to use that against me as well.
