Research - Pro SeWhat is the name of your state? WA. Anyone have some good WWW sites I could go to to research Cases from around the country? How would an attorney do the same research? Below are some of the Cases I would like to look up: State v. Hoffman, 115 Wn. App. 91, 101, 60 P.3d 1261 (2003). 6See, e.g., MacIntosh v. MacIntosh, 749 N.E.2d 626, 630 (Ind. Ct. App. 2001) (where the court rejected the notion that a child's resistance may excuse a missed visitation); Hartzell v. Norman T.L., 629 N.E.2d 1292, 1295 (Ind. Ct. App. 1994) ('{A}n adolescent's refusal to cooperate with scheduled visitation cannot divest a dissolution court of its authority to enforce its visitation orders.'); Clark v. Atkins, 489 N.E.2d 90, 97 (Ind. Ct. App. 1986) (rejecting mother's argument that her minor children's refusal to visit their father justified her noncompliance with a visitation order); Han**** v. Han****, 122 N.C. App. 518, 471 S.E.2d 415, 420 (1996) (Where the court held that where 'the custodial parent does not prevent visitation but takes no action to force visitation when the child refuses to go,' a contempt order is inappropriate because the parent's action is not willful.); Smith v. Smith, 70 Ohio App. 2d 87, 434 N.E.2d 749, 752 (1980) (Where the court, focusing on the young age of the children (five- and eight-years-old), and reasoning that they were too young to make an affirmative and independent choice not to visit their father, upheld a contempt order against the mother who argued that her children refused to visit their father despite her encouragement to them to do so. The court reasoned that, given the age of the children, the mother had to do more than simply encourage them to visit their father.); Commonwealth ex rel. Ermel v. Ermel, 322 Pa. Super. 400, 469 A.2d 682, 685 (1983) (after finding that the daughter's ''negative attitude' toward her father {was} a direct result of {her mother's} conduct,' the court upheld a contempt order where an 11-year-old girl refused to visit her father). |
