Another thing you can possibly use in court is a declaration signed by Kendall's peditrician stating that it is not in her best interests to have overnight visits or extended custody with her father at this time due to her age and her needs since they are already caring for another infant. If you took Kendall to the dr. for the flea bites or any other issues that occured under her fathers care they could include that as well. I am still searching thru code sections to see if there is anything set in stone in CA. 18 months seems to be the rule but nothing concrete there. Overnights can be granted as early as 6 months per the code if non custodial can prove there is a need for it or it is in the best interests of the child. They may also consider her needed more time to bond with her "brother". This can get ugly and out of control really fast. Please get help.
