    Go for the boyfriend's employer - maybe with any luck for you - they've split and he'll be only too happy to drive you to the home :)

    My information is very old, and not even sure they are still together, she has has plenty of boyfriends, often more than one concurrently. He was in the Met. so a lot of police stations to trawl over. I dont think he would cooperate with me anyway since she colluded with him to have me arrested under false pretences.
  • Have no useful info other than I hope you find them soon.
    It's sad that these poor children are being denied access to a parent, I will never understand peoples motives when doing such things.

    When I was divorced from my ex, we had a dispute and he took our DD out of school early so that I couldn't go and get her - the head said that there was nothing to stop him as he had PR.

    It's so sad when you hear stories like this.

    Unfortunately it always seems like there's not a lot that you can do about it.

    PWC's should lose their claim to maintenance if they act in such an unreasonable manner.

    I have already been back to court and has an audience with a Judge, I need to find her new address before any further steps can be taken.


    Get a Seek and Find Order :

    If you are seeking an order under the Children Act 1989 and do not know the whereabouts of the child, you can apply for a 'seek and find' order under section 33 of the Family Law Act 1986.
    The application is made on Form C4. Apart from your personal details this asks for the name, date of birth and sex of the child (with a recent photograph if possible) and details of "the person believed to have actual control of the child".
    Under section 33 (1) "the court may order any person who it has reason to believe may have relevant information to disclose it to the court". You will need to specify who should be required to disclose information (this is not necessarily an individual and can include a Government agency such as the DSS). You must also give a brief explanation on the form of the grounds for your application, and it may be advisable to swear an affidavit in support.
    Once the information has been provided to the court then service of the Children Act 1989 application can be effected and proceedings commenced.

    This looks like the holy grail I have been looking for.

    Got it, I'll make the application now.

    I laughed at the bit where it asks for the address of the parent with custody:cool:
