RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — A Virginia woman has again lost her bid to deny child-visitation rights to her former partner.
Lisa Miller has been trying for years to block a Vermont court order
awarding Janet Jenkins visitation rights for 7-year-old Isabella, but
courts in both states have ruled against her several times.
Most recently, she asked a Winchester judge to block enforcement of the
Vermont order in Virginia. The judge threw out Miller’s complaint, and
the Virginia Court of Appeals unanimously affirmed the decision Tuesday.
Miller and Jenkins entered into a civil union in Vermont in 2000, but
Miller later renounced homosexuality and moved to the Winchester area
after the couple split.
