Unpublished Opinion-State of South Carolina discourages intergenerational contact-This goes against Grandparents

The court of appeal in South Carolina has recently issued an unpublished opinion that it is against the public interest in South Carolina for parents and grandparents to enter into an agreement whereby the parents would allow, not mandate but simply allow, the grandparents to have contact with their grandchildren. A motion for rehearing has been filed and if not granted the matter will undoubtedly be filed wiih the Supreme Court of South Carolina. Because the opinion was unpublished, the public does not know about it. Parents and grandparents alike would be outraged if they knew this state not only discourages intergenerational contact, it holds agreements for such contact to be void, i.e. nonexistent in the eyes of the state. Have you any suggestions for making this outrageous opinion public? I am attaching a copy of the decision and the motion to rehear.
Judge Walter Blackwell (ret)
