visitation right

Read a random definition: yeomanry

A quick definition of visitation right:

Visitation right: When a child lives with one parent, the other parent or grandparent may have the right to spend time with the child. This is called visitation right. Sometimes, the parent who doesn't live with the child has done something wrong, and the court has to decide how much time they can spend with the child. In international law, visitation right means that a country can search a ship from another country to make sure it's not doing anything wrong, like carrying illegal things. If they find something wrong, they can take it away and punish the people who did it.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Visitation right is a court-ordered privilege given to a noncustodial parent or grandparent to spend time with a child or grandchild who is living with another person, usually the custodial parent. This right is granted to ensure that the child maintains a relationship with the noncustodial parent or grandparent.

Example: If a couple gets divorced, and the mother gets custody of the child, the father may be granted visitation rights to spend time with the child on weekends or holidays. This allows the child to maintain a relationship with both parents.

Explanation: The example illustrates how visitation rights work in a divorce case. The noncustodial parent, in this case, the father, is granted the right to visit the child to ensure that the child maintains a relationship with both parents. This is important for the child's emotional and mental well-being.

Visitation right can also refer to a belligerent nation's right to search a neutral vessel to find out whether it is carrying contraband or is otherwise engaged in nonneutral service. If the searched vessel is found to be carrying contraband or is engaged in nonneutral service, the searchers may seize the contraband and carry out an appropriate punishment.

Example: During a war, a belligerent nation may search a neutral vessel to ensure that it is not carrying weapons or other supplies to the enemy. If the vessel is found to be carrying weapons, the belligerent nation may seize the weapons and punish the crew.

Explanation: The example illustrates how visitation right works in international law. A belligerent nation has the right to search a neutral vessel to ensure that it is not aiding the enemy. If the vessel is found to be carrying contraband, the belligerent nation may seize it and carry out an appropriate punishment.

Here's a fairly well respected estimate fruitybat: The proposed tariffs could cost consumers an additional $2,500 to $7,600 a year per household, according to estimates, said Jonathan Gold, vice president of supply chain and customs policy for the National Retail Federation.

blue collar trump voters are gonna blame anything but him anyway when the price of their household consumption goes through the roof. I wonder how they'll spin that narrative.

I love when people prefer putting not talking about gender in schools at the top of the agenda instead of dealing with school shootings
