Dear Mr. Feldman,

I have not yet received a response from you to my letter dated 10/24/05. Despite the restraining order, I continue to receive numerous daily phone calls directly from Tom Frank. When we spoke following the court hearing, I told you I would not have any direct contact with Tom. He seems to be under the assumption that he can pick and choose his visitations dates with the children. But based on your letter to me dated 10/20/05, he requested an every other Sunday visitation schedule in Ellensburg, commencing on 10/30/05. In my response I was in agreement with this request and asked for a written schedule from you, with a commitment from Tom to the specific Sunday dates and times. This was to insure his level of commitment based on his past history of failing to exercise his visitation times, as well as a way to protect the children from further harm when their father does not follow through with his promised visitations. In addition this (new) visitation schedule deviates from the Parenting Plan and the Commissioner’s recent recommendation of half-day visits during the week in Ellensburg. Therefore, it was in the best interest of both parties that this schedule is in writing.

I did not receive a written schedule nor did Tom make any arrangements to see the children on 10/30/05 as was agreed. During recent phone calls he is now telling the children he will see them this Sunday, November 5th. I am unwilling to rearrange the children’s schedule or prepare the children for a visit with their father that will not materialize without a specific agreement in writing. Until you provide me with a written schedule with every other Sunday dates and times (within a five hour period between 12noon and 6pm, as stated in my previous letter) to which Tom is willing to commit to see the children, I am unwilling to leave this open-ended because of the impact this has on our children. We must have a schedule in place to ensure Tom’s commitment as well as a routine and availability in the children’s schedules. Tom has had almost three weeks since our 10/12/05 hearing to visit with the children….he has not seen them once. The children are obviously not a priority for Tom.

So there is no misunderstanding, I will not communicate directly with Tom Frank about his visitation schedule for the children. Any contact must come from you, and I ask that you tell your client to immediately stop all phone calls to me.

Thank you,

Moira Tynan
