Sentence check

A court ruling was delivered not acknowledging the custody and parental rights of a father who interfered with court-ordered maternal visitation.

Hi,

Does the sentence read well for natives?

If not very well, how about this one?

A court delivered a ruling that does not acknowledge the custody and parental rights of a father who interfered with court-ordered maternal visitation.

Also, I want to know if putting indefinite article "a" in front of court is grammatical.

Thanks

Does the above sentence read well? No, not really, Rainous. How about: The court ruled to deny custody and parental rights of a father who interfered with court-ordered maternal visitation.
