If they are still married, then you likely lack "standing" to request grandparent parenting time ("standing" means you cannot even file the request). However, if one files for divorce from the other parent, then you WILL have standing to request grandparenting time. I hope you enjoy a great week. Warmest regards, Matt.

I agree with Attorney Catchick. More facts are needed to know exactly what your circumstances are. I recommend you contact a family law attorney in your area for a consultation.

I would suggest that you find a local family law attorney to assist you, as grandparenting rights in Michigan are complicated and limited. Best of luck.
