Right of contact

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The right of access is part of parental responsibility in Germany . The owners of the right of contact determine, according to § 1632 Paragraph 2 BGB, which persons have contact with the underage children and adolescents, when and for how long, taking into account the right of contact, for example for grandparents and persons close to them.

The right of access is not to be equated with the right to determine residence , because it represents a different area (sphere of activity), as the Federal Court of Justice emphasized in 2016: "The right of access is an independent part of personal custody that can be withdrawn separately in the case of child welfare. In the event of a conflict between the parents, a judicial access regulation and the appointment of a guardian as a milder means always take precedence. "According to §§ 1684, 1685 BGB, the family court has the competence to regulate frequency, duration, place and time, access companion or exclusion from access to meet. A contact care center can be set up to implement these regulations .
