My ex has recently stopped all access to my daughter who I have had regular contact 2/3 times per week for over a year. We are starting mediation together in the new year. Obviously I want to see my daughter over Xmas. Can I get an interim order and how do I go about this. Any help much appreciated.

Hi , All to often this happens. I would suggest writing to your ex requesting that contact be re-instated,with a warning that the alternative will be legal action.The problem is that the court process is very slow.The earliest you can apply for interim contact is called a directions hearing, where there is some agreement between you and your ex this is called a consent order but by the sounds of it your ex is not going to come to any agreement with you.By writing to your ex it will show the court that you tried to resolve the problem amicably, in my own experiance playing by the book is the best way to make yourself look the responsible one and want what is in the best interest for your child. Very difficult i know but to show that your hurt and upset will only give your ex the satisfaction that she is trying to achieve.
As i have said on here many times don't give up,took me eleven months and a few quid to be able to see my son on a regular basis and the satisfaction that brings is second to non. Good Luck
