Former Lesbian Couple Battles Over Child Custody

Written by Rebecca Terrell
Thursday, 31 December 2009 01:00

A seven-year-old girl stands in the crosshairs of a bizarre custody battle between former lesbian domestic partners Lisa Miller and Janet Jenkins. The Wall Street Journal reports that Miller is the child's biological mother and conceived her by artificial insemination while living with Jenkins in Vermont, where they were joined in a civil union in 2001. Miller became a Christian in 2003, renounced the homosexual lifestyle, and moved to Virginia with her then-infant daughter, Isabella Miller-Jenkins.

Jenkins sued for unsupervised visitation, which Vermont Judge William Cohen granted after dissolving the civil union, but Miller refused to comply with the court order. She said allowing Isabella to spend time unsupervised with Jenkins would violate her Christian principles. Miller appealed the visitation order to courts in Vermont and Virginia. The VermontTimes Argus reports that Miller's attorneys argued that Isabella has not lived with Jenkins since she was a baby. A doctor who testified in the case said the change could "induce devastating trauma." Miller also expressed concern that Jenkins refuses to take Isabella to church. Jenkins' attorneys denied these claims.

Miller's appeals in both states were unsuccessful, but she remained in contempt. As a result, in November the court awarded Jenkins sole custody. According to the Wall Street Journal, an attorney for Jenkins claimed, "It is Ms. Jenkins' intent when she has custody of Isabella to allow as liberal contact as is possible with her other mother."

Miller tried to delay the transfer, set for January 1, but the court denied that request, too. Now, Miller and Isabella are missing. ABC News reports that no one has seen or heard from either of them since November 20, not even Miller's attorneys.

Under Vermont law, Jenkins is one of Isabella's legally recognized parents. She filed a missing person report on Wednesday since she does not know the whereabouts of her daughter. Her attorney Sarah Star said Jenkins is concerned about Isabella's safety and about Miller's mental stability. ABC News also quoted a professor of constitutional law at Vermont Law School who explained that if the transfer does not take place January 1, the court will likely issue a warrant for Miller's arrest.

How liberal of you, FL. Blame everybody else for this woman's stupidity.

I already told you I could care less about EITHER "former partner", it's the little girl I'm concerned about. If the mom was smart she would have asked for a Guardian Ad Litem for her daughter, in order to stand up for the child's rights in court.

No, it is NOT an opinion that this little girl has little or no recollection of this other woman, she was TWO years old when she last saw her, and more than likely thinks she was just a friend of her mom.

Are you saying that parents do not bond with a child who is two and under? Are you saying the child doesn't bond with parents prior to the age of two. I'm here to tell you that you're wrong. Bonding on both sides is firmly established.

What is this "just a friend of her mom" crap? The two women were married, made a nursery together, changed diapers together, got up 2 am for feedings, ooohed and aaahhhed of over the first smile, first crawling, first steps. You're not a parent are you?

That's a sad commentary if you think that dad's can't get action for their parental rights in court. That says more about our crappy system than the merits of this case.

Probably not in school at all since she and her mother are now fugatives.

Had her mother complied with court orders, this woman wouldn't be a stranger nor would she have been granted full custody of the child.

So I guess if the government told you to hand over your kid to someone you feel is a threat to your child's safety and psychological well-being, whom you know is doing such a thing out of pure spite and revenge, you'd happily comply

What a stupid analogy!! I'm not an idiot like this former carpet muncher who has never proven any threat to her child's safety or psychological danger in regards to her ex-wife.

No, I don't carry on with court battles based on revenge and spite like this mom on the run. If I ask the court to determine a case, I respect the court's decision.

Read the article again abraxas. It was the jilted lesbain who initiated the court battle, not the mother.

"Jenkins sued for unsupervised visitation, which Vermont Judge William Cohen granted after dissolving the civil union"

Jenkins is not the child's mother, she is the jilted gay lover.

Just when I think that analogies couldn't get any more stupid.....you prove me wrong.

This isn't a second amendment issue. This former carpet muncher moved to this state to be a part of it's gay marriage promotion. Oh, but now she changed her mind so the law should no longer apply to her.

I live in open carry states. I wouldn't live in an anti-second amendment state, which is also the most likely states to promote gay marriage.

You read it again. The court decision was part of the initial splitting of the sheets:

Jenkins sued for unsupervised visitation, which Vermont Judge William Cohen granted after dissolving the civil union, but Miller refused to comply with the court order.

When you file your motion and go through the divorce courts, it is customary to determine child custody and visitation at that time.

Your point?

This is referring to a blessing of liberty and prosperity. However, you think liberty only applies to some of the people some of the time when you deem that interpretation of liberty to be in line with your interpretation of morality.

Are you saying that parents do not bond with a child who is two and under?

I'm not looking at the bond this other woman may have felt towards the little girl, but that of whatever bond the little girl may have felt towards this woman. I'd say it's probably a safe bet that the girl bonded with her natural mother rather than this other woman who was just "playing" mommy.

What is this "just a friend of her mom" crap? The two women were married, made a nursery together, changed diapers together, got up 2 am for feedings, ooohed and aaahhhed of over the first smile, first crawling, first steps.

How do YOU know this other woman did all that? Maybe she didn't give two shits about the kid, ignored her, mistreated her, and that might be why the girl's real mother left.

Or she MIGHT have been as you say, thing is, the girl is SEVEN YEARS OLD at this point, and should not be forced to live with a woman who is NOT related to her in any way, especially one who MAY want her for unsavory sexual delights.

That's a sad commentary if you think that dad's can't get action for their parental rights in court.

In interstate matters, women can kidnap children to other states and there is not ONE thing the government will do to recover them, well not in USUAL cases that is...

Hence why there should NOT be gay marriage or gay adoption.

That would have come out in court and the court would have decided for mommy on the run. The court found the ex-wife to be FIT to parent. Mommy on the run had no case other than "newly minted Christian" which didn't get her too far.You simply do not have any evidence to substantiate your opinions, yet you keep making them over and over again to the giddy delight of AKA Stone.

And Jenkins did not HAVE to SUE for UNSUPERVISED visitation. Apparently there was already some concern on the part of the child's mother if Jenkins had to ask for UNSUPERVISED visitation.

What it comes down to is a lesbain wants this kid, and you feel the need to support her actions and allow her to do whatever she wants with the child, to hell with the kid's life or dreams.

Do you have transcripts? Do you have the reports from whatever agency may have investigated? I've seen courts hand kids off to EXTREMELY unfit parents, so you have ZERO idea of how fit this other woman is, you are just stating your opinions or hunches as if they were facts.

Why don't you read the Sermon on the Mount? That would be much more relevant to what is expected of you as a Christian than the Old Testement story of Sodom and Gomorrah.

This is the words of your savior, which you rarely seem to apply to real life. Go read.

In any other divorce, the non biological parent would have rights to the child.
Not true.
Step-parents often have no legal rights to the child.
If the biological parent is fit, and the other parent is non-biological and has not adopted the child... blood goes with blood.
Because of the mothers beliefs (newly minted is moot) she did not want her child with her former gay lover. She is the mother, it's her decision.

Of course now that she has fled with her child she will probably loose everything.

Because of the mothers beliefs (newly minted is moot) she did not want her child with her former gay lover. She is the mother, it's her decision. Of course now that she has fled with her child she will probably loose everything.

Now, according the the great state that granted her wish to marry her lesbian lover, what she wants today is not as relevant has what she wanted a couple of years ago when she married her wife.

Be careful what you wish for, eh? Vermont used to be so darn great when it gave her what she wanted and now it's aweful because if doesn't grant her new wishes that support her new beliefs.

Doesn't matter that now she no longer wants the child around her former gay lover. It matters what her initial intentions were regarding this child and her ex-wife, according to the court.

Yep, she will probably loose everything.

WTF. I also thought you were male. You post like a man. ;)

Now that your secret is out... I might flirt with you.

I must not be nagging enough on my posts. Maybe a few emotional outbursts would help. Oh, and an occasional tirade at least once a month for good measure. lol

I'm all a blush. : )

Not true. Step-parents often have no legal rights to the child. If the biological parent is fit, and the other parent is non-biological and has not adopted the child... blood goes with blood.

Good point. Actually, it depends on the state. In some states a woman can screw around while she is married, yet her husband is still on the hook for child support even if the baby isn't his.

What did he say about harming children?

I still haven't seen an iota of evidence of harming children.......other than making her a fugative.

Your confused. I understand there are a lot of posts.

The "he" in my comment was God.

Ah... The feminine We, as opposed to the other.

No worries. Still recovering from last nights 2 beer drunken-ness.

I don't see how my profession is relevant to this discussion.

My guess was lawyer.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the center cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. .... Yeats
