Thanks for your input Waylon. Thats what I thought too, since in my CO, there is nothing that states I don't have access to those things... Well, I have an appt with my lawyer tomorrow am, so I will find out for sure.

So,what you are saying is that since I do not have sole legal and sole physical, then I don't have access to all those things? The court order doesn't say I don't have access it doesn't address those issues at all.

I am a little confused.
 
"access to medical, dental, and educational reocrds concerning the child may not be denied to a parent because the parent does not have physical custody of the child"
 
Wouldn't that mean, that even though I don't have physical custody of the children, I still have access to those records?

Thanks for the replies.
 
My ex-husband has sole legal and sole physical. However in my state it states in the law:
 
Unless otherwise ordered by a court, access to medical, dental, and educational reocrds concerning the child may not be denied to a parent because the parent does not have physical custody of the child.
 
However, it doesn't state about legal custody. But, I am going to contact the school and see what happens. I am retaining my attorney once again, because there are many issues that just didn't get addressed in court when we went there in July. Plus the CP has violated the court order in several areas and I have no other choice than to go back to court. The town is fairly large and would be a big task to try to call doctors offices. I think I will just have my attorney address it in court.

I am a non custodial parent. The father refuses to allow me access to medical,school, dental records. He won't even disclose that information to me. Like the name of their doctor. How can I obtain access? If I file in court, how should I do that? Is that considered contempt?
