What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? TN
Long story short, my ex had zero to do with our child till I asked for state assistance with child care. At which point they went after him for child support. he then decided to make false statements about where we live and asked for sole custody. Before we had our court date, he moved to CA. He did not tell the court he moved, he told him he still lived at his old address here in TN and then asked for home studies of both of our residences and a GAL. Well, the home study was done here, they met with me and my daughter, said everything was fine. My daughter and I met with the GAL and he visited here as well.
My question is, since he moved, they are unable to do any home study on him or the GAL see his living environment. Will this not make any difference in court, especially since he is the one who asked for all these things then bailed and was unavailable for them? Please note, I have no problem with any of the investigators or the GAL but really think that it needs to go both ways with the investigation, even more now that he has moved so far away. Thanks as always for your advice.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
