US Family Law refugee in Netherlands (2008)
This case has just been pointed out to me. It is quite a complex case including allegations of MSbP. It does demonstrate, however, that there are quite a few family law refugee cases over time.
The challenge in private law cases (which is what this essentially was) is to find a way forward that does not have this dreadfully adversarial approach where the state acts as a steamroller.
One concern I have about this case is that it should have been possible to avoid the children losing contact with one of their parents without using the state hammer. posted by John Hemming ¶ 10:53 am
