Family Court Order Diverts Plane

If you thought Family Courts have too much power check this story out. A
Family Court Order caused an airliner filled with passengers to be diverted
and land to remove a child from the flight.

How is this too much power? I would hope to shout that a child
being illegally removed from a country would be cause to stop the
flight.

My son's mother was detained at the airport in an attempt by her to remove
our child from the U.S. against a court custody order. The child was
taken from her (temporarily) and given to me, awaiting a court hearing to
remove take posession of the child's passport that she had obtained without
my knowledge. Recently, there was a new Federal Law enacted to require
permission by the noncustodial parent in order to obtain a passport for
a child.

If you were one of the 370 plus passengers who had their flight diverted and
missed flight connections due to the 2 hour delay, or if you had to pay the
tens of thousands of dollars for the cost to divert the flight, would you
feel any different?

Personally, I think a family court judge disrupting international
transportation and commerce is a gross over-stepping of their authority.

No; I've missed flight connections for FAR more trivial reasons
in my life . . . delays are part of travel, adults cope without
going ballistic. And, the gov't should recompense the airline
for the cost of diversion; they can then recover it from the
person who made the diversion necessary by putting the kid on the
plane.

Then, you do not understand how the law WORKS in most countries.

Personally I would stand up and applaud the judge who diverted the flight.
Being a parent who has experienced the nightmare of having my own children
"disappear" - I can only sympathize with the parent who isn't committing the
illegal act of removing the child. It is the primary reason I can
sympathize, and understand, the horror many fathers experience when their
ex-wives deny contact to their own children.
