ANNA TAIDA ROZBICKA BECZEK VS PIOTR HENRYK BECZEK
N/AOUTCOME: Petition for the return of the child was denied
My client moved with his family from Poland to the US almost 2 years ago. Shortly after the relocation, the parties filed for divorce. The mother moved back to Poland without taking the child with her. ... After almost one year, the mother filed a petition for the return of the child to Poland under the Hague Convention. She claimed that the child's habitual residence was Poland and that he was wrongfully taken. The court found that a wrongful taking did not occur and that the habitual residence of the child was the US. In addition, the court determined that if the child was returned to Poland, grave risk of harm would exist to the child. Based on the findings, the court denied the petition for the return of the child to Poland.
