Expert Testimony as to Potential International Child Abduction to Colombia


In an order issued on September 25, 2017, the Chancery Division – Family Part of the Superior Court of Union County, New Jersey, held that Jeremy D. Morley “was qualified by the Court, without objection, as an expert in the area of International Family Law and International Abduction cases. Mr. Morley was an extremely knowledgeable and impressive witness."
The Court further held that Mr. Morley’s testimony “clearly indicates that, while Colombia is a Hague signatory, its non-compliance and spotty enforcement record indicates that any parent would be justified in having a concern about their child being held in Colombia by a Colombian born parent.”
