In Part 2 of the series, Patty Shewmaker and Alexa Lewis talked about how the complexities of international child abduction and the rights of the abducting parent enter into these cases, what their affirmative defenses could be, and how they are applied under the multilateral treaty.

Where to file is important strategically when you are in this situation, and is very situation-dependent.
