Here's a brief clip about a recent Cook County family law case involving a visitation restriction:

1st Dist. In re Marriage of Manhoff, No. 1-06-2762 (December 5, 2007) 3rd div. (QUINN) Affirmed Mother's petition to restrict the visitation of the father, alleging disrupting conduct on the part of the father in the presence of the children, was sufficient, despite failure to attach affidavit in compliance with local Circuit Rules, since it contained 1-109 certification. Further, father has failed to establish that trial court abused its discretion when it ordered supervised visitation, with the father required to pay for the supervision, since he failed to include a transcript of the hearing in his report of proceedings.

Take a read of the full case. The court restricted the father's visitation seemingly based on a mere argument between the father, mother and the mother's boyfriend.
