In part 1 of this series on the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction, Patty Shewmaker and Alexa Lewis discussed international child abduction, the details of child abduction when it involves separate countries, and how the wronged parent may petition for the return of children to the country of habitual residence.
In this video, Part 2 of the series, they talk 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.
