Oklahoma child custody
laws determine which parent the child/children
are granted physical custody to. The parent
that is not granted physical custody is
normally granted visitation rights unless
it is not in the best interest of the child.
If for any reason the noncustodial parent
is denied his/her visitation rights or his/her
visitation rights are interfered with, they
may file a motion for the enforcement of
visitation rights. Due to the delicate nature
of children, this motion immediately issues
a order for mediation or a hearing that
will be no more than 21 days after the motion
was filed.
If the court finds that the custodial
parent has been interfering with
the visitation of the noncustodial parent,
Oklahoma visitation rights law allows the
court to create a specific visitation schedule,
compensate the noncustodial parent the time
missed with the child/children with equally
valuable time which could be supervised,
assign responsibility of attorneys fees
to the custodial parent, assign one or both
parents to counseling that will focus on
the impact of visitation disputes on children
and if the situation called for more drastic
measures, the court can modify previous
child custody rulings.
If the court finds that the custodial parent
has not been interfering with the child
visitation they have the judicial power
to assign all of the attorney's fees, mediation
costs and court costs to the noncustodial
parent.
Oklahoma child visitation laws are designed
to protect the interest of the child or
children involved. Contact
