That 9/10ths is about to show the OP what Interpol stands for...
If you didn't know it, all it takes is for the DR mommy to make a report with the local authorities and the rest will be between a rock and a hard place for the "concerned" daddy...
To the OP: You really don't want to open a Pandora?s box that will never seem to get shut. Like I told you, patch up your "thing" with the kid's mommy sooner, rather than later...
You're not the first parent hold their kid(s) in the USA for keeps, each single time w/o a fail, all the kids have been returned to their DR's parent and their cases ventilated in the courts here...
That's 100% of all cases! That's a fact!
Interpol is not going to return a 'sick' child (dont know why you continue to ignore this important fact...I know you are always pro DR but this is not an issue of Dominican VS non-Dominican but about a childs health ) who is an American citizen, who is in the midst of getting intensive medical tests and care.
The health and wellbeing of the child comes first.
The fact is an 'unbiased' doctor gave his medical opinion that the child is delayed due to 'lack of stimulation'. Which will weigh heavily in a court of law, more heavily than any parents 'opinion', if it even comes to that...as Juanitas posts describes. The child has other health issues. The OP has valid concerns for the health and safety of his child.
That is the issue not the parents feelings or their 'private legal'
sex life that they keep from their child...give me a break (her trying to meet foreign men online or him being apart of a world sex site, if that is even true, is irrelavant...and a judge will quickly tell you so...they have heard every childish ridiculous game in these cases).
The DR mom gave written permission and agreed for her son to go to the USA to seek medical treatment and meet the other side of his family. There is no legal custody agreement between the two. This is not a kidnapping case.
The mother broke Dominican law and international law when she forged documents for her other child to leave the DR and enter the US, when the father refused to give permission for that. What about the law and that fathers rights and feelings?
And if you didnt know all it would take for the US daddy is to call DR and local authorities/immigration and make a report. This can be easily tracked (flight information with the airlines, US and DR immigration records, copies of forged documents, the fathers testimony that he never wrote the letter) and it will be the mother who will be in between a rock and a hard place with the law, immigration and with the father of her other child. Messing with immigration is not a Pandoras box that she will want to open.
She will never win that fight!
You cannot compare this particular case with the other 100% cases you are referring to.
To the OP.....
Understand there are posters on this board who have an agenda (national pride, real estate, business, ego, etc.). So take their 'advice' with caution.
