Answer:
In Vermont, a superior, juvenile or probate court which has considered
or is considering the custody or visitation of a minor child may award
visitation rights to a grandparent of the child, upon written request of
the grandparent filed with the court, if the court finds that to do so
would be in the best interest of the child.
You may need to obtain an attorney to assist. Suggest you contact your probate court clerk for guidance.
