What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? I live in Florida, my daughters mom lives in NJ.
We have joint physical custody, however I have had residential custody for the past 9 mo. The order was for 1 year, to end 8/2012.
However, while living with me, my daughter sexually assaulted my 3 year old son, and faced criminal charges. Her mother wanted her home sooner than the 1 year I was granted, I agreed she shouldnt be in my house with my small kids, but b/c she had a lot of court ordered therapy/probation to attend, and her mother doesnt drive, we agreed she stay with me only until her case was closed, then return home to her mom in NJ.
the case closed last month, and her mom said she now dont want her back until the original time in Aug. ( she wants her summer free)... but my daughter cannot live in my home with small kids after what she did as I fear shes a threat to them. Her mom insists on August, doesnt care about my situation, and cut off all communication.
I wish to return her home at the original agreed upon time this month, whether she likes it or not. I called the police in her town, they told me I am allowed to take her home bc we have joint custody, and if moms not home, i could take her to the police and they will call mom and tell her she must come get our daughter. Is this true?
my daughter wants to go home, i feel it best she goes home bc of the fear shell abuse the smaller kids again, and her mom has no other kids. my daughter is 14 years old. i want to make sure that legally/criminally i cannot get in any trouble for taking her home.
