Summary:
|
After a multi-day trial ending in the summer of 2014, the child visited with his father in the US. The father threatened not to return the child which necessitated an ex parte order in Nova Scotia and registration of the order in Arkansas for the return of the child. The father sent abusive, threatening and misogynistic emails and texts to the mother. The father put the child in the middle of the conflict by expressing his views about the mother to the 5 and then 6 year old child. |
