A friend of mine had unrestricted visitation rights to her ten year
old daughter until a year ago, when those rights were reduced to
supervised visitation.
 She went to court to get this repealed, but to no avail.  Some
conditions on her were set, but what concerns me is that her
daughter's law guardian keeps telling her, out of court, about new
restrictions - increasing limitations on phone time, number of
permitted emails, etc.
 Isn't this a violation of due process?  I thought restrictions and
limitations are set in court and can only be changed in court?  In
addition, her ex seems to openly flout his restrictions, but nothing
negative seems to happen to him.  How can my friend use this to her
advantage?
