In cases where domestic violence and narcissistic personality disorder are present, it can be challenging to protect children from being exposed to harm. Unfortunately, even with evidence of domestic violence, temporary orders may allow the abusive parent to have parenting time with the child. In such cases, it may be possible to appeal the temporary orders. However, it is essential to work with an experienced attorney who understands both narcissistic personality disorder and domestic violence.

Understanding Narcissistic Personality Disorder And Domestic Violence
Narcissistic personality disorder is a condition in which an individual has an inflated sense of self-importance and a lack of empathy for others. This condition can lead to abusive behaviors, such as domestic violence, in intimate relationships.
Domestic violence refers to a pattern of abusive behavior that is used by one partner to control and intimidate the other. This abuse can take many forms, including physical, emotional, psychological, and sexual abuse. Domestic violence can have a severe impact on children, even if they are not the direct targets of the abuse.
Appealing Temporary Orders
If you have evidence of domestic violence by a narcissistic parent and your child is still allowed to have parenting time with the abusive parent, it may be possible to appeal the temporary orders. However, the success of the appeal will depend on the specific circumstances of your case.
First, you need to work with an attorney who understands both narcissistic personality disorder and domestic violence. Your attorney will help you understand the legal requirements for appealing temporary orders in your state.
Second, you need to follow the statute closely and provide compelling evidence that the abuse occurred and that your child is not safe with the abusive parent. This may require providing documentation of past incidents of abuse, witness statements, and expert testimony.
Third, it is crucial to demonstrate that the abusive parent’s behavior is likely to continue and that your child is at risk of harm if the current parenting time arrangements continue.
