What is the punishment for preventing the child from meeting with the rightful persons?

According to the Mehr correspondent, one of the most important issues in the family courts is the issue of the right to visit a child and prevent a parent from enforcing this right. Legal experts warn that preventing a child from visiting, if it is against the court's ruling, is not only legal but can be affected by legal punishment.

The right to meet, a legal right to the relevant persons

Based on Article 2 of the Civil CodeWhenever a child is entrusted to one of the parents for any reason, the other parent has the right to meet his child at certain times. This right will be determined by a court ruling if not agreed. In addition to parents, sometimes grandparents, grandmothers, or other close relatives, can also apply for a meeting with the child by proving the benefit.

What is the punishment for preventing a child?

Legal experts emphasize that depriving a parent or person with the right to visit a child is a violation of the court's ruling and can prosecute. If this behavior is repeated, the court may appeal to subsequent decisions about custody or even transfer custody to another person.

According to Article 2 of the Family Protection ActAnyone who refuses to execute the court's custody of the child or prevents it from being implemented or refuses to extradite the child, shall be detained at the request of the beneficiary and, on the order of the issuing court, until the execution of the sentence.

Based on Article 2 of the Family Protection Act Also, whenever the court determines that the agreement, custody, maintenance, and other affairs of the child are contrary to his or her expediency, or if the responsible for custody refuses to do so or prevents the child from meeting with the entitled entitlements, he or she may be able to do so, such as delegating custody or custody. Therefore, the child will prevent the child from visiting if the child is expected to be prevented by a court ruling.

What court is the jurisdiction to handle the petition with a child?

‌The family court is competent to handle the lawsuit (father or mother or parent or maternal ancestors) or a lawsuit (the characteristics of a supervisor or person who holds custody of the child).

The term and the place of meeting

In the case of the place of meeting Article 5 of the Implementing Regulations of the Family Protection Act The Chief Justice has obliged the province to provide places or places in every jurisdiction, with the appropriate space of children's moods in collaboration with the Welfare Organization's human resources and human resources and cooperative departments, social welfare and health or other relevant centers with sufficient social workers and if needed.

The right to visit the child is the legal and human right for parents and relatives to be enforced within the framework of the court's ruling. Any unjustified prevention of this right can be prosecuted and, if continued, can lead to judicial punishment and custody. Judicial officials, family counselors, and support agencies all emphasize the respect for parental rights and the maintenance of the child's mental health.
