What does a Colorado judge need to do other than read transcripts, to possibly reopen a child protective order?
The judge closed the case in March, after almost 2 1/2 years of court proceedings and intervention for my daughter. (No charges were made against her or the boyfriend.) She has now moved out of this state.
DHS now wants to reopen her case, because they think they have been "duped," by my daughter. They also stated under oath that they "screwed up," in not having a protection order in place to keep her from taking her children back into an abusive relationship with her boyfriend. The judge even admitted that he does not read every case, and that he must have been asleep to not have ordered that she not have continued relationship with her boyfriend.
Judge set the court date out to mid June and is reading transcripts to see if he can legally re-open the case, as well as ordered the kids not to be around the boyfriend. What does the law say abut this?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
