Thank you for your reply.  Couple more questions.

Should I wait till he is out of the hosiptal?

Can I speak to the DA and have this done or do I need to get a lawyer handle this?

I have been divorced for 2 years and we have a 5 year old daughter together.  I am the CP and we have joint custody for major decisions. We live in TN and the divorce was handled here also. He has remarried this past year and there have been several problems.

He does not come and pick up his daughter according to the parenting plan, every other weekend, or call her during the week.  As of today he has not spoke or seen her since Christmas day.  Ever since his wedding I have been told that I need to speak to his wife about things concerning our daughter and instead of him coming to pick her up, the limited times that this happens, I was informed that she would be doing this.

The last time my daughter spent the night, he called the police on his wife for DV.  No call was made to me and neither was taken to jail.  The next day the wife called and told me about the agruement, but left off the fact that the police were called.  My daughter came home and told me.

Now, he has been put in the hospital and there has not been any call from her letting his daughter know.  I work at the hospital and found out while doing my job, and due to HIPPA I cannot tell her nor do I think I should as it has been requested by the wife that we not come.  

I do not think that he would hurt our daughter, but I do know that things are getting worse between him and his wife and I think our daughter could just be in the wrong place at the wrong time.  

What legal rights does she have with my child?
What could be done about the DV and vistation with daughter?

I have no idea what to do and nothing seems to help, the only one getting hurt is my daughter!
