CNN reports case dealing with Hague Convention specific to the Civil Aspects of International Child

BOULDER, Colo. - Oct. 14, 2013 - PRLog -- On October 2013, CNN discussed Guillerono Luis Torres BRODA v. Frania Jasmin Ceza ABARCA, represented by Ms. Caroline Langley. She is a member attorney at Family Law International and an expert at child custody and child abduction matters. The Broda case discusses what would be and what would not be considered as child abduction. Applying the standard set out in the Hague Convention to the facts of the case, both the First Instance Court in Mexico and the United States District court favored respondent Abarca. Article 13 of the Hague Convention does not require returning of a minor if a prior consent had been given for the retention or trip. Here, facts clearly revealed that petitioner Broda had given prior consent by way of a travel authorization for respondent’s trip with her child. This authorization permitted respondent mother to travel and keep her child freely anywhere without any restraint. Therefore, the courts did not find respondent guilty of child abduction.
