[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you saying that a judge has ordered this? Or that this is what the other parent is requesting?[/quote]

This is what a judge has ordered.  Yes, dad threw mom out of the house.  She is not on the mortgage.  He told her to leave (i.e. get out of my house by tonight) and that he was starting eviction proceedings.  Due to his erratic behavior mom put a restraining order on him restricting him from access to the child.  He countersued for full custody and this is what the judge has ordered temporarily.  Seems insane to me to split a newborn baby 12 hours each day between each parent when he needs his mother.  Dad had nothing to do with the child these past few weeks - basically came home from work, drank for 3-4 hours locked in his TV room, then decided that he wanted to play with the baby at 10pm.  This was all presented to the court and this was their insane decision.

What can the mom do?  Ask for a guardian ad litem to advocate neutrally for the child?  Find a new attorney?  Petition for a change of venue?  Dad is military in a big military town and I think he is getting favors.  [/quote]
