parenting time over xmas
i have a question about which order we follow. my boyfriends seperation agreement (joint custody, her custodial parent) from 07 states he needs to put in his request before dec 1 for xmas holidays and they are to split the xmas break and all school holidays. then in the july 09 settlement minutes it states that he is to have access every other weekend and a 2 midweek visits. the new order states that he is now the visiting parent. it also states that they will consult with each other regarding all childrens issues, health education etc. then on jan 10 the final order only states that she is awared sole custody and may make all decisions. it says that he the father is to have reasonable access on reasonable notice at the discretion of the mother subject to the childrens wishes and thats it. so now he has requested xmas time and she has nixed all his requests except for 1 overnight visit. how much time can he legally request? does he follow the dates and guidelines set forth in the orginal seperation agreement or is he to expect only overnight visits? he lives out of town now and she is not allowing weeknight visits and he currently sees the kids overnight approx 1 weekend a month due to her control. what can he do to enforce more parenting time with his children. she also claims she doesnt have to inform him of health or education issues and that he cannot inquire himself as she has sole custody. is that correct?
also on oct 14 minutes of settlement it states that the party requesting the change in child support shall be responsible for filing the consent motion and the other party shall not unreasonably withhold consent. so does he send her the form by registered mail and hope she signs it or does he just file the motion with the court?
