What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan
Last year my ex filed for paternity and parenting time. We were never married. My ex has a severe drinking problem and we mutually agreed to supervised visitation until his drinking was under control (which has still not happened). Our daughter will be five in August.
At the time of the court case it was apparent that he didn't really care to have paternity established, but that his mother was interested in suing me for grandparenting time (by apparent, I mean that gma TOLD me this).
The paternal grandparents are welcomed to visit my daughter while she is at their other son's (my daughter's uncle) visiting her twin cousins who are the same age. The other son lives about four miles down the same road. They refused to see any of the grandchildren this way because they want them at their house and without their parents. The paternal grandparents are invited to all dance recitals, t-ball games etc.. The paternal grandparents have never once asked me for a specific time that they could have me or my daughter over as a guest. There is a very long story involving the paternal gma and how she has blantantly disrespected every rule her grandchildrens' parents have set.
Long story short...I told them to see my daughter on her dad's time. Daddy doesn't take very much time because he has a severe drinking problem and he knows he can't utilize his parenting while time intoxicated. Daddy doesn't want his parents to have a court-ordered visitation schedule and neither do I. I received a letter from their lawyer today stating that if I didn't agree to let them visit my daughter under their terms then I would be taken to court soon. I talked to paternal grandpa today and he is under the impression that they have rights and this will be an open and shut case. My daughter is not close with either one of them, and has no strong bonds to them.
What will happen here if I file this letter from their lawyer in my trash can and tell them to stick it where the sun doesn't shine?
