2. “On May 12, 1994, the trial court entered an order enjoining the father from disposing of any of the child’s personal items, allowing the child to retrieve all her personal items and her pet, and enjoining the father from impairing in any manner the child’s right and entitlement to her PACT account. Id. at 1104. (emphasis added). At a hearing on the grandmother’s verified complaint, the father argued that the trial court’s December 14, 1995, dismissal order, wherein the trial court dismissed the pending motion for custody pendente lite filed on October 19, 1994, acted as a dismissal of the court’s earlier order dated May 12, 1994, which had enjoined the father from spending the child’s PACT money. Id. at 1105 (emphasis added). The grandparents, in addition to seeking custody, had attempted to stop the father from throwing away his child’s things and from invading the child’s college money. ... The injunction preventing the father from taking his child’s college money was not addressed in the order ... In its original order enjoining the father from taking the child’s college money. ... Id. at 1105 . (emphasis added).”
