Hello, i'm in a bit of a state. My exH took my children for a contact day and didn't return them. I sent a msg asking where they were adn was told refer to email dated march. Exh gave some dates in March for summer holidays which were unsuitable and in excess of the contact permitted by the courts. i pointed this out and provided suitable dates - not very different from his requests, yet he refused to return the children, tell me where they are or allow any contact with them. We are due in court for financial FDR on Thurs and he's done this to cause me distress. I am at my wits end and don't know what to do. My sol advised going for an ex parte order to have children returned but police seemed to think this would be a waste of time as he's a compulsive liar and is highly volatile and has harrassed me and more recently my solicitor in an attempt to create excess costs and stress for me. I am frightened that this will become the pattern (ie: he takes the DC and doesn't return them as he believes he has the RIGHT to do as he pleases). I am the resident parent for the DC aged 2,4 &6. I would appreciate any advice from you lovely people as I am at my wits end both emotionally and financially - thanks in advance x
