Service dog being withheld from owner

Is there any recourse when a registered service dog is allowed to live with the "other" party during a pending divorce? That seems incredibly fricked up imo. My cousin is deaf and his wife won't let him have his service dog back.
And no the animal was never mistreated.

Wow that takes the term count to an entirely new level.
Well, not "count"... but you know.

What sort of judge doesn't grant the service dog to the one that actually needs the service dog?

Sounds screwed up and illogical, but hardly surprising. Most women adopt a scorched earth policy when divorcing.

I'd just go take the fricking dog. Let her call the cops.

Probably one that has heard the whole story and not a 2 line explanation on the OT.

That's f up. The "service" dog is for him so why the hell would she want to take it from him? The only reason is just to be a count.

Yes she's coming for everything. All of his assets also.
ETA: Not just her half. Everything.

I understand if this were a child or some other assets and he were at fault for the divorce but this is a service dog and he has the handicap. OP also stated that the dog has not been mistreated. I see no reason for him not to get the dog.

She's legit claiming that it's her dog. And the court granted custody of the dog to the wife until property settlement.
At settlement I really hope he gets his dog back. But if he doesn't is there anything else that can be done?

This kind of shite is why I'm not married yet.
I'm going home and hug all my stuff.

Serious question; How does a dog aid a deaf person?

I'm sure you could get a TRO for something like that. That ain't going to play well in court.
ETA: Read further that the Court gave the dog to the wife. Retract the above.

I'm ignorant on this subject, but what service does the dog provide to your deaf cousin?

Read further. The court granted the spouse custody of the dog. At least for now. So he's running around solo. He can't tell if someone is knocking at his door. Can't tell if the phone is ringing etc.

Just read that. That's a little wild. Does this happen to be in EBRP?
