Armenia's Court of Appeals has rejected the plea of a mother to
overturn a lower court ruling allowing for her estranged common law
husband to visit their two kids on his own.
Meri Martirosyan, the mother of the two kids, had filed criminal
charges against Hayk Papyan for assaulting her whenever he visited
to see the children, Siranoush and Samvel.
In my November 12 article "Court Disregards Wishes of Kids: Father Can
See Them without Mom's Presence" I wrote that the lower court decided
in favor of the father even though both children stated in court that
they didn't want to meet their father without their mom being present.
Meri Martirosyan says she is planning to take the case to the Court
of Cassation but that she doesn't hold out hope that the verdict will
be overturned.
