18. JEFFREY SHASKY V. KATHERINE SHASKY PFL20210259
Petitioner filed a Request for Order (RFO) on February 4, 2026, seeking enforcement of the court’s November 4, 2025 orders. Petitioner filed an amended RFO on February 6, 2026, seeking the same orders. There is no Proof of Service showing Respondent was properly served.
Respondent filed and served a Responsive Declaration on March 16, 2026. In her Responsive Declaration, Respondent asserts she was served on March 9, 2026, however, she does not state the manner in which she was served. The court finds March 9, 2026 service to be timely. While, this is a post-judgment request for modification, and as such, service must comply with Family Code section 215, the court finds any defect in service to have been waived by Respondent’s filing of a Responsive Declaration which addresses the issues raised in the RFO. As such, the court finds good cause to proceed on the merits.
Petitioner asserts that Respondent has failed to comply with the court’s orders for reunification services between Petitioner and the minors. Petitioner seek an order compelling the minors to attend reunification therapy and for Respondent to support such therapy. Petitioner further seeks court orders regarding payment for reunification therapy.
Respondent objects to the orders for reunification services and she asserts there is a no contact order preventing Petitioner for having contact with the minors.
The court has read and considered the filings as outlined above. The court has considered the orders from Sacramento County, which were ordered on July 17, 2025, which are modifiable by further court orders, and specifically state that issues relating to child custody and child visitation are to be addressed by El Dorado County. The court finds the current orders remain in the minor’s best interest. The current orders remain in full force and effect. Respondent is to ensure the minor’s full participation in all therapeutic services, including reunification therapy with Petitioner. The parties are to share in the cost of reunification therapy equally.
All prior orders remain in full force and effect. Petitioner is directed to prepare the Findings and Orders After Hearing (FOAH); however, this order is effective immediately upon the court’s adoption of the tentative ruling and is not conditioned on the preparation of the FOAH.
