This is sad for you, your son and your grandchild, who, it sounds like, the court has agreed, should be benefitting from a relationship with her father and his family.
From what you've said, the court has made an order setting out how contact between them should be taking place and that's not being complied with.
Either he can wait until the case is back in court in February or you can contact the court sooner than that and ask for the current situation to be looked at again.
I 'm very aware that this could be costly and a lot of money has already been spent. However, these days more and more parents are attending court without a lawyer and representing themselves. So, courts are used to this situation and it shouldn't put your son at any disadvantage if he decides to do this.
Here are some links to websites that offer advice about this:

If you have a look on the web, I'm sure you'll find others as well.
