Summer vacation and 2 week timesharing
Anonymous2 views4 answers
My ex wife and I have a parenting plan that states she must decide what 2 weeks in summer she wants and must decide by April 25th, or I get to choose first. That date passed and I didn't hear anything, so I decided to pick my 2 weeks. I still didn't hear anything and I sent several emails, texts, and even asked in person about this. She choose to ignore it until June 10th and then asked if I ever received her email about the dates that she choose( I know she was lying, because of some things that were said about the issue). I told her no, and asked her several times to send it again. That never happened and it is now June 22nd.. No email, text, phone call or nothing!
What can I do about an uncooperative parent? I'm tired of asking for dates and never getting a response!
I think you should keep asking, but make you summer plans how you see fit. If she tells you the dates she wants and it conflicts with your plans, you should let her know about the conflict.

You need to document you efforts to communicate with the mother. If you cannot properly document your emails and/or texts, then you should send her certified mail letters.
If she cannot properly follow the parenting plan, you may have to find a method of dealing with her refusal to follow the plan. One method is to use a parenting coordinator. Here is a link to the Statue relating to the use of parenting coordination. http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=0000-0099/0061/Sections/0061.125.html
IF you need to go back to court you can request that a parenting coordinator be appointed and the parents ordered to cooperate with the parenting coordinator.

I agree with both the other attorneys. All you really can do is what you are suppose to do and document, document, document. You may end up in Court over this but that is really all you can do. Contact a family law attorney if you feel you need more detailed advice. Good luck.
