      In this paper, the author studies the family of elliptic curves \(\mathcal{E}_n(t)\) over \(\mathbb{Q}\) given by the equation \(y^2 = x^3+ tx^2 - n^2(t+3n^2)x+n^6\). The main result is that if \(n\) is a positive integer and \(t\geq \max(100n^2,n^4\) or \(t\leq \min(-100n^2,-2n^4)\), and \(t^2+2n^2t+9n^4\) is squarefree, then the \((0,n^3)\) is not dividible on \(\mathcal{E}_n(t)\), i.e. there does not exist a point \(P\in \mathcal{E}_n(t)\) and an integer \(\ell \geq 2\) such that \(\ell P=(0,n^3)\).
