I have been divorced since 2000. My husband pressured me into joint custody. He is primary and has since moved two hundred miles away. He wants me to have nothing to do with our son who was one at that time. I have not been able to see, talk, or hear my son in over three years. I call no one answers; I go there his wife calls the cops. His family wont help me. I am not a bad mother just not as wealthy as his family. Is there anything I can do? We (my daughter and I ) miss him soo much. I don't even know what he looks like anymore!

How in the world did he get primary custody?
Money is not that important.
You mentioned pressure. Pressure perceived is pressure achieved. You should always stand up for yourself in a court of law. Nobody else will do it for you.
Anyway, you spoke of primary custody and not sole custody. If he is denying you contact with your sone then tell a lawyer and file for a redistribution of the custody arrangement. Perhaps you can get more custody if not primary custody. At least, you should get what is owed you.
I am assuming your daughter is not his. Courts don't normally spilt children. Don't be afraid to speak of that point. The boy has a sister. The court will take that into consideration.
At any rate, this is a simple problem. He is probably in contempt of the custody arrangement and should be reported to the judge. Do so. Then file for a reexamination of the custody arrangement as it relates to the father taking the boy so far away. By any chance did he tell you first? He should have. He should have told the court first.

With babies mutually the courtroom would evaluate a "situation-free regulation" courting. right here nor there...you need to comprehend the words "criminal (custodial) custody" and "joint custody." There are 2 kinds of custody, actual and criminal. Joint actual custody (fairly of one discern having custody with the different having visitation), does no longer advise top branch of time with each and every discern, yet would be in step with lifelike time with each and every discern the two quite spelled out (particular days, weeks, holidays, decision classes) or in step with reported rules and shared cost of expenditures of raising the new child. Joint criminal custody means that the two parents could make judgements for the new child, alongside with scientific scientific care, yet the place conceivable they ought to seek for suggestion from the different. Upon the dying or incapacity of the two discern, criminal custody will circulate to the the rest discern and could provide the lively discern the only means to act as discern for the new child without greater advantageous order of the courtroom. the generic influence of this would be a psychological income for the discern and the new child, so as that a new child can learn that the two parents cared for the new child, even nevertheless the new child had to stay most of the time with one in all them. The courtroom would be sure which discern would have actual custody based upon the information presented for the time of any custody listening to.

Sorry to here that!!! I feel your pain, I'm going through the same thing with my ex, and yes!!!! there is something you can do!!!! if he has left the state- 1st, call the police and report that he has kidnapped your child. During and after a custody battle a parent can not leave the state with the child without permission from the court or without permission from the other adult ! 2nd report to the Court that he has broken the Courts ruling on joint custody and refuses to let you see your son! Just sit back and WATCH WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!!!! LOL

Call an attorney or legal aid...Make certain you have a photo copy of the divorce agreement showing your rights as a mother...
You ex husband could be charged with kidnapping. Whatever you do...don't just sit back.
You may even seek the advise of a Priest or member of the clergy for assistance.

File a complaint against your husband for violating the agreement on joint custody so that you could enjoy the rights again.
