THE JUDGE SHOULD NOT HAVE PLACED CONDITIONS ON MOTHER’S VISITATION; MATTER REMITTED FOR A SPECIFIC VISITATION SCHEDULE (FOURTH DEPT). ​

The Fourth Department, reversing (modifying) Family Court, determined the judge should not have placed conditions on mother’s visitation and remitted the matter for a visitation schedule:

We agree with the mother … that the court erred in conditioning her visitation upon either her participation in domestic violence counseling or that she no longer reside with her husband … . We therefore modify the order accordingly, and we remit the matter to Family Court to fashion a specific and definitive schedule for visitation, if any, between the mother and the children. Matter of Seeley-Sick v Allison, 2025 NY Slip Op 01747, Fourth Dept 3-21-25

Practice Point: Conditioning mother’s visitation on domestic violence counseling or on no longer resided wither her husband was deemed improper. Mother was entitled to a specific visitation schedule.​
