(firmenpresse) - SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/05/12 -- An article published at U.S. Politics Today detailed an international child custody battle and the subsequent involvement of the United States Supreme Court in the matter. With a legal team well versed in matters of family law, commented on the news story.
According to the article, the family involves a mother who is a citizen of Scotland and a father who is a citizen of the United States. The couple parented one daughter while married.
The article notes the couple married while the father was living on a United States Army base in Germany. During the father's military deployment to Afghanistan, the mother cared for the child in Scotland. The family then moved to the United States.
Soon after, the couple filed for divorce. During the divorce proceedings, the article reports the mother was deported to Scotland following an arrest on charges of domestic violence. At the time of the rest, authorities discovered she was living in the United States on an expired visa.
To gain custody of her child, the mother filed a motion with the United States District Court. The court allowed the mother to remove the child from the United States based upon rules outlined in two key pieces of legislation: The Hague Convention and International Child Abduction Act and the International Child Abduction Remedies Act.
Subsequently, the father appealed the case to the United States Court of Appeals. The court dismissed the case, citing the child was by then a legal resident of Scotland. The father appealed the case a second time to the United States Supreme Court.
As noted, the processes involved in an international custody battle are highly complex. In a statement to the press, the Stephen B. Ruben's law firm commented, " has extensive experience with assisting parties in international custody and child abduction cases."
Upon further review, the Supreme Court elected to hear the case. The goal of the case is to resolve the disagreement found among the Unites States Circuit Courts on whether a child's country of residence will moot further legal proceedings in this country.
