My ex and I share joint custody of our son who lives with me 60% and lives with him 40%.The problem is my exhusband brings his fiance to things i feel should be just between the parents of our child(doctors appts.,school meetings with the teachers regarding our son)I have asked nicely for his fiance to stay home and leave these decisions to my ex and I to handle.Well my exhusband refuses to respect my wishes on this.As the mom do i have any legal rights to say where his fiance can and can't go regarding my son?

She's part of the extended family now, or soon will be. Better for your son if you two get along. It'd be a different story if she was abusing your son somehow. But other than that...

don't let animosity get in the way of what's best for your child. i'm sure it galls you to have her around but, if the boy is spending time with them on a regular basis, it might be best if she's on the same page from the start. if she only has your ex husbands word on things, there could be miscommunication. i don't think she needs to be a dr visits, hell my husband doesn't even go to them but, she should probably be involved with the school stuff. be the bigger person.

I wish I could help you out on the legal issues but all I can say is that your son must be really lucky that he has three parents that want to be in his life so much that they argue over who can be with him more.

I dont think you do. If his fiance is breaking a law, or demonstrably hurting your son, then you have legal recourse.
If your problem is that she is your husbands new wife, and in her role as his wife, she participates with your husband in parental activities, I dont think you have any say there.
Dont trust me. Ask an attorney. They are authoritative.

you can stop it if she has drugs or violence in her background. of course, this is before he marries her. after that you are just going to have to deal with it and get used to it.
mine cheated on me with a 19 yr old ho, i left him and within a month he took my daughter to her moms house, where she lives, and they all slept in same bed. i got some bad stuff on her and her history. i now have it court ordered that she can't even be at that house now or around that ho.

It is likely that she can go to these functions.
Keep in mind that this woman has no say over your child. You could politely tell her that you do not wish to discuss your children with her.

No you do not, the only thing you can take to court is if you son is calling her mom, other than that, they will be married soon, and she will probably be takng him places by himself sometimes.
