What is the name of your state? California
When Child Protective Service removed my children from my ex husband home due to the fact CPS felt the kids were not safe due to his drinking abuse and verbal/emotional abuse.
Superior Court Judge orderd my ex to complete 4 diffirent programs before he would make a hearing deciding if he would arrange a visitation schedule. My ex was totally uncooperative and infact stated to the judge and Chid Support Officer that he would not do anything any court told him to do and he didn't. In fact he didn't even show up to the last hearing, that was very sad for my children.
Anyway the Judge terminated the case and made NO visitation schedule and said If the girls wanted to see him I would be the one to monitor the visits. That my ex would have to open up a new case and proving why he should see the children again. I was told my by girls lawyer that my ex would have to show proof that he did some of these programs.
That my ex has no rights anymore, however according to my ex lawyer he does still have right thats why I ask what kind. My ex seems to think he's above the law and thats why he even stated the kids could see him when they turn 18. But his lawyer said I still need to inform him when I take the kids to the doctor, counseling etc. But my kids lawyer said NO, the only rights my ex has is that he still a father to them and thats it. As far as what school they go to, what doctor is none of his business. Please infrom me of your thoughts of this.
Thank you
My question is what kind of rights does my ex still have?
