A mother who “deliberately and unjustifiably frustrated” a father’s attempts to visit his child was appropriately stripped of child support and primary custody, an appellate panel in Albany has held.
The Appellate Division, Third Department, unanimously affirmed a Schuyler County Family Court judge in a case where the custodial mother had repeatedly hindered her estranged husband’s efforts to establish relations with his daughter, even though the father made no attempt to enforce his visitation rights for six years.
