What is the name of your state? GA
My son's ex-girlfriend has custody of their 18 month old daughter. The ex-girlfriend moved 3 states away in April...temporarily at first to care for a terminal family member but that move has turned permanent. My son has seen his daughter once during this time and has paid child support every week except for the last 4 weeks. He has an open case with a lawyer(one that is hard to get in touch with) that originated in December of 2005 concerning child support and visitation. He has had some drug problems and is currently unemployed. Mediation has not worked in resolving the issues...she wants more money and less visitation. Her recent demand is for my son to "sign over his rights" and she won't take him to court. My questions are....can he be made to "sign over his rights" because of his drug use.....exactly what "rights" are being signed over....is this even a legal process in Georgia?What is the name of your state?
