My husband left us with no money,car, or place to reside so I left and came to florida where I have family with our daughter.

How did you get Florida to make orders regarding your child when you hadn't been there long enough to establish residency? (six months)

I think that you are going to need to consult with attorneys in both FL and VA. If you had been in FL six months I would normally say that FL would have jurisdiction over the child....particularly since FL has made orders regarding the child. However the fact that you hadn't been there long enough to establish legal residency, before he filed for divorce, could complicate things.

State: Florida


The state of Florida granted custody because the acts of violence where conducted while we reside in the state of Florida. The Injunction was filed on behalf of my daughter. Would a lawyer be able to tell me who had jurasdiction over my daughter.

What acts of violence? You mentioned NOTHING about this in your posting.

Get an attorney. Tell the attorney EVERYTHING. Don't leave stuff out like you did here all that will do is hurt you.
