MOTHER WAS NOT GIVEN THE CHANCE TO ADEQUATELY RESPOND TO THE ALLEGATIONS FORMING THE BASIS OF FAMILY COURT’S FINDING THAT MOTHER VIOLATED A VISITATION ORDER, MATTER REMITTED (THIRD DEPT).

The Third Department, remitting the matter, determined that mother never got the chance to respond to allegations which were the basis for granting father’s violation petition. Father alleged mother denied the father parenting time in violation of the temporary order of custody and visitation:

We agree with the mother that she was not given adequate notice of the allegation forming the basis of Family Court’s determination. In granting the father’s violation petition, Family Court found that the mother violated the June 2015 order by denying the father parenting time on January 22, 2017. Any denial of visitation on this specific date, however, was never alleged by the father in either his violation petition or his emergency application. Rather, this claim was raised for the first time when the parties appeared before Family Court on January 23, 2017. Moreover, Family Court did not entertain any proof with respect to the actual allegations in the father’s pleadings. In this regard, when the mother’s counsel inquired as to the purpose of the January 23, 2017 hearing, Family Court responded that it was to address specifically what transpired on January 22, 2017. Furthermore, there is no indication in the record that the father moved to amend his pleadings to add an allegation relating to the January 22, 2017 incident … or moved to conform the pleadings to the proof adduced at the hearing after the parties testified … . Matter of Pike v Bigelow, 2018 NY Slip Op 07006, Third Dept 10-18-18
