COURT IMPROPERLY DELEGATED ITS AUTHORITY BY ALLOWING MOTHER TO CANCEL VISITATION IF FATHER WAS MORE THAN 15 MINUTES LATE (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined Family Court should not have given mother the power to cancel father’s visit with a child if the father was more than 15 minutes late:

​

The Family Court erred in granting the mother the authority to unilaterally cancel the father’s visitation if he were more than 15 minutes late to pick up or drop off the child. This provision did not give the father an opportunity to judicially challenge the mother’s determination, or to present a legitimate reason for his tardiness before having a visit canceled … . Thus, the court improperly delegated its authority to the mother to determine when the child would visit with the father … . Matter of Michael R. v Aliesha H., 2017 NY Slip Op 08377, Second Dept 11-29-17
