WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court this week heard arguments on an international child custody case in which a father is looking for the return of his daughter who is with his foreign mother abroad.
The Court is being asked if U.S. family law courts can determine custody when a foreign parent takes a child out of the country.
Voice of Russia’s chief legal correspondent, Carmen Russell-Sluchansky, found out more from Margaret Ryznar, a law professor at Indiana University School of Law in Indianapolis.
