Question Presented (AI Summary)
Whether a district court is required to consider ameliorative measures after finding that a return would expose the child to grave risk
Question Presented (OCR Extract)
QUESTIONS PRESENTED The Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction generally requires that children wrongfully removed or retained from their country of habitual residence be returned promptly so that custody disputes may be adjudicated in the requesting country. Article 13b of the Convention provides an exception to that requirement when there is a grave risk that returning the child would expose the child to physical or psychological harm or place the child in an intolerable situation. The questions presented are: 1. After finding that a return would expose the child to grave risk, is a district court required to consider ameliorative measures? 2. If a district court considers ameliorative measures, which party has the burden to prove the ameliorative measures?
