Give your dad a call, only if you are prepared to live with an extremely irritable mother. If your father was granted visitation rights, then yes your father can take her to court. If child custody was never disputed in court (read: your parents hashed it out privately) then technically, your dad is on his own.
Personal advice, talk to your mom. Not in an angry tone, but in an "I really miss my dad and would like to see him more" kind of tone. This is going to be more effective than any court date, argument, or yelling match that can occur over this. It allows your mom to step back and kind of say WHOA, and see who else is getting hurt here. Of course there is the chance that this won't work. But at least you tried.Then you call Dad, let him know what's up and let the fighting begin. Beware, it will get ugly. Best of luck sweetie.

As long as your dad is a dependable dad, yes you should be able to see him. This is really up to the courts anyway if your parents are divorced?Your mom may not have gotten child support from your dad.No excuse,YOU ARE NOT FOR RENT!! Yes, talk to both of your parents separately and tell them how you really feel and everything out in the open with both parents.Sorry you have to go though this, how old are you that you are lying for your mom?

Why dont u talk to ur mom first in a nice way.
Ask her why and also tell her what u think and feels.
If u didnt like what ur mom will say to u then go tell ur dad.
Of course ur dad can take her to court .
But if things could be straight on just talking to ur mom and dad why court, right?

i had the same problem only my dad was keeping me from seeing my mom i'm not sure he can take her to court but if he was visitation she is not following the judges orders and i know if that is the case he can but you may have to go into court and say all this in front of your mom if you think u can then ask him to do that ... and yes i think you should tell your dad what she is doing u wouldn't want him to think you love him any less and that may be what is going through his head

Your dad can take her to court, ask a close friend if you can use you friends celll phone, or house phone while you are over their house if you friend doesn't have a cell phone. Explain to him or her what your mom has bean doing, and that you nead to call your dad and tell him without anychance your mom is going to interfear. If your friend doesn't let you do it, resort to a pay phone away from your house, where your mom has a bout no chance of seeing you.

Your mom might have a reason for not letting you see him. He might have done something really bad that she isn't telling you. You should talk to a family member you trusts (and she trusts-- or else she won't listen to them either). Or a school counselor.
Chances are you dad might already know what is happening. Even if he doesn't don't tell him until you've talked to someone else. Good luck. :)

unless there is a reason for keeping you from your father, then, no it's not "fair", in the least. BUT, if your mom is protecting you from something, she shouldnt go at it this way. she should be up front and honest, and try to explain things as clearly as possible to you. try talking it out w/ her, she may be willing to discuss this situation.. if you truly dont suspect anything wrong of your dad, i'd ask him about it, but, yes, it could lead to a court matter. best of luck, sweetie!

You don't say how old you are. I think you need to see if you, your mother & father can sit down & have a meeting. Tell them both the truth on what you see happening.
Is there a good reason your mother fears you seeing your father? Drugs, etc.? or is it just her being ugly?
Divorces always come with some baggage but she needs to do what is right for you.
