My response:
You see, that wasn't too difficult was it ?
All you had to do was to put this information in your initial post, and then I could have better understood where you were headed with this, and your concerns.
For all I knew (or anyone, for that matter), there were no children involved, and no concern about Grandparents. Now, were getting somewhere with your latest response.
If he should go to jail for contempt of court, you get to keep your children while he's incarcerated. The grandparents have no right to visitation, for two reasons:
1. They are not part of the "visitation order".
2. You have the Supreme Court case of "Troxel vs. Granville" on your side. As the parent, you have the final say-so who sees, or who doesn't see, your children.
If your STBX cannot exercise his visitation, for whatever reason, then he should have thought about that before he became a contemnor of the court's Orders. But, no matter how the court rules, or what the court does with him, if the Grandparents want to see your children, and you don't want to allow such visitation, then you are within your rights to say "No."
