SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 23 –
Guillaume Jacquety is
suing to take his daughter
back from the United States to
Morocco. There is a lawsuit,
and there was a settlement
conference on June 4, citing
the Hague Convention.
But there are
questions about Moroccan law,
and a veil of secrecy. Now
there are
objections to
a doctor's
questions, and
his objections
back.
Geraldine
Helena Tena Baptista "took the
Child from her habitual
residence in Morocco" to
Switzerland, according to the
Complaint - but then
"fraudulently obtain[ed]
altered Portuguese travel
documents." There is reference
to a radiologist in New York
she was allegedly having an
affair with.
This was
allegedly done with the
assistance of an employee at
the Portuguese Embassy in
Switzerland.
In
September, she submitted a
declaration about her Moroccan
cell phone, which was restored
to factory settings and given
away after even its WhatsApp
function was cut off.
Now on November
23 Jacquety's lawyer has
written to Judge Lehrburger to
complain about the failure to
respond to the questions of
Dr. Peter J. Favaro "in
advance of Dr. Favaro's
interview with the child."
For his part, Dr.
Favaro writes that "as a
result of the communications
between the attorneys I be
[sic] revisiting whether any
interview with Ella would be
worthwhile under the present
conditions."
The case is
Jacquety v. Tena Baptista et
al., 19-cv-9642 (Marrero /
Lehrburger).
