I've had primary physical custody of my son since 2008(he was 6 months old when the courts decided but I had emergency custody of him from the day EX and I split up but that's a whole other story) EX and I shared Joint Legal custody and she had EOWE visits, 2 weeks during summer or breaks and some rotated holidays. This was the case from November 2008-January 2013. January 2013 my EX was arrested and charged with assaulting her 8 year old son(not mine) and endangering the welfare of a child. Both her 8 year old and her infant daughter(from yet another father) were removed by CPS and placed in Foster Care. CPS contacted me the following day and recommended to me to STOP all visitation to my EX and file in court. I did so the next day. Court agreed with me and suspended all visitations with my EX pending the outcome of her criminal charges and CPS case. She now gets supervised visits 3 hours 1x a week of which she mostly cancels, the most recent was cancellation of 5 week in a row. Fast Forward to now 8 months later. I have temporary sole legal and physical custody, Ex's kids still remain in Foster Care(minus the short 4 week return of her infant before she was then removed again). After the past two court no shows, Judge had changed her previous declaration of waiting for other counties court decision before making a ruling and has set the next court date for an inquest and trial.

Ex does not work
Refuses to pay child support
Is not involved with any aspect of our son's life outside her supervised visits. Has NEVER attended any parent teacher conferences, school party, play, IEP meeting or any extra curricular activities or sports.
Basically she disappears in the time between her visits.

Any other father's with custody?
