Barker Mar 8, 2006, 16:30 Email this article Printer friendly page In recent years, the issue of whether a grandparent has the right to visit with a grandchild has become more prevalent. Sadly, when parents decide to get divorced, the parents of the non-custodial parent often end up cut off from their grandchildren. The issue of grandparent visitation is complex. On the one hand, why should grandchildren be denied a relationship with their grandparents just because their parents are being divorced? On the other hand, shouldn’t parents have the ability to determine what is in the best interest of their own children without the court system intervening and infringing upon their civil liberties?

The Jackson Law Firm, P.C. Grandparent Access to a Child By Earl N Jackson Dallas, Texas Note this page will be updated in the near future. There have been significant changes to the law since its' creation in response to the Troxel decision. In June, 2000, the U.S. Supreme Court in Troxel v. Granville , in one of its rare decisions in the Family Law area, reshaped the definition of family by determining who has the power to control possession of minor children. The decision has been hailed as a victory for parents rights and a defeat for grandparents rights. Texas law provides for both conservatorship (custody or rights incident to custody) of a grandchild and possession and access to a grandchild by a grandparent. These concepts are distinct. In the one incident, we are talkiing about a grandparent having the rights and duties of a parent during periods of possession. In the other instance we are talking about a grandparent's possession and access to a grandchild without the rights and duties of a parent conservator. Grandparent Conservatorship The controlling statute for conservatorship by a grandparent is set out in Section 102.004 of the Texas Family Code. This statute provides authority to a grandparent to seek conservatorship.
