This poor man even closed his proceedings in New Zealand and moved back to the US since he is able to reside here. He agreed to have the case litigated in the states. Then the mom pulls the trump card....molestation and abuse. Seriously? Is the an online course women take to do be able to do this to the father of their children?

i am not sure but i believe the US courts is where the Hague case was always going to be held since that is where she abducted him to. It is the Hague hearing in a family court ( which is par for the course of any Hague hearing ) and denied on basis of allegations the Mother made instead of sending the children back as signatory countries are required to do under the Hague guidelines.
So what we have is a court that looks at a mother’s unsupported allegations of abuse and (a) refuses to enforce the Hague Convention and (b) only allows their father the most limited of supervised visitation. It looks at the same kids who’ve plainly been abused by their mother’s abduction of them and her denial of contact with their father, and gives the thumbs up. That’s bad for children and it violates the Hague Convention, but why would a family court be concerned about that?
So far the whole thing has cost him $70,000.
Grant Cossey, welcome to the United States. Get comfortable, it looks like a long stay.

The case was originally, from what I can tell, started in New Zealand since that is where they were living for three years, i.e. habitual residence. The Hague petition is started by the party whose child was wrongfully removed, in this case from NZ.

Started , but litigated where the abducting parent abducted them too, that would be the US in this case, Ireland in mine and Mexico in Carlos'. I didnt read anywhere in the article that he closed and decided not to prosecute the proceedings, in fact this article says that the Hague court decided not to return the child because of molestation allegations. Do you have further documentation that supports what you are saying?
