    Judge found the father had acquiesced to the initial wrongful removal by virtue of his inactivity and conduct between April and November 2001 (seven months), thereby abandoning his Convention remedy; the mother's December 2001 visit did not restore the father's rights and the application for return was dismissed as inappropriate in the child's interests.
