What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas
My husband and I will be representing ourselves pro se in a voluntary termination of parental rights and stepparent adoption. I received information from Collin County about how to file all the paperwork. But I am confused as to what I will say when I go before the judge. The paperwork I received says to read all of the points of the original petition and then give the judge the decree terminating parental rights and granting adoption. Does this mean I will read everything from the original petition such as selction of discover, parties and service of citation, Jurisdiction etc....through all 18 points of the original petition?
Any help would be appreciated.
