A contentious hearing regarding a custody dispute between Ms. Silvey and Mr. Silvey. Here's a summary of the key issues and the judge's rulings:
Key Issues:
Contempt of Court Order: Ms. Silvey was previously held in contempt of court and ordered to have no contact with the children at their events. She's seeking to have this provision reviewed and removed.
Child Pickup Times: Disputes arose over child pickup times from school, with accusations of Ms. Silvey using unauthorized individuals and Mr. Silvey attempting to control the process excessively.
Children's Stress and Allegations: Ms. Silvey claimed the children were stressed due to Mr. Silvey's actions and alleged that Mr. Silvey made threatening comments to the children. Mr. Silvey denied these claims.
Extended Parenting Time: Ms. Silvey requested extended parenting time to visit her sister in Connecticut.
Credibility of Ms. Silvey: The judge expressed significant concerns about Ms. Silvey's credibility, citing past instances of dishonesty to the court.
No Contact Order: The judge decided to maintain the no-contact order at children's events until the end of the school year. This decision was based on concerns about Ms. Silvey's behavior and disruptive influence on the children and their co-parenting relationship. The judge did not find Ms. Silvey's claims about the children's stress credible.
Child Pickup: The judge ordered that Ms. Silvey pick up the children at dismissal time (approximately 2:30 pm and 2:40 pm for Noah and Jude, respectively) unless otherwise notified in advance (ideally the morning of) to Mr. Silvey, including the full name and identification of the substitute. The judge emphasized the importance of ensuring the safety of the children and expressed disapproval of past instances of unauthorized pickups.
Connecticut Trip: The judge denied Ms. Silvey's request for extended parenting time to visit her sister in Connecticut over the Christmas break. The judge suggested the parties explore alternative arrangements to allow the children to see their aunt during her visit.
Attorney Fees: The judge was hesitant to award attorney fees to Mr. Silvey due to the nature of the motions and the court's prior direction for review.
Overall:
The hearing reveals a deeply fractured co-parenting relationship. The judge clearly sided with Mr. Silvey, expressing significant distrust of Ms. Silvey's credibility and concern for her behavior's impact on the children. The judge's rulings prioritize the children's well-being and stability, attempting to create a clearer framework for communication and child exchange while emphasizing a need for Ms. Silvey to improve her behavior and adherence to court orders.
