What is the name of your state? PA
OK I have been on the phone all day today & have gotten no where :-( this week is court week for most lawyers in the area so now we are waiting for return phone calls. I will try to make this short as possible with all the info.
My boyfriends daughter is here for the summer for visitation she is 5. both parents have joint legal custody with the mom having physical custody & the father having visitation. this order was done in GA. the mom has moved to IN on June 23rd the child was with us then. we got a phone call from the sherriffs department in GA this morning saying that the mothers boyfriend is being accused of sexual abuse of 2 girls that have come forward with these alligations.
She told my b/f that he needs to file for emergency temporary custody of his child because the child can not be in the same house as that her mother lives in with the boyfriend. the mother has refused to move & says he is innocent & that they cant tell her where her child can live . uughhhh
So my question is do we file for this in PA , GA or NY ?? I been reading online all day & found some info that says in emergencies we can file in the state the child is actually in now. is this true ? any advice would be greatly appreciated !
oh & we do have an appt for the child to be see by our DR. as the sherriff said she needs to be examined to since the child has lived with this man for at least 2 years. I pray to god he has not touched her :-(
