Get your Dad to file an objection. There's nothing you can do: you're a minor.

Incorrect, SP. In TX, OP can file an Affidavit of Preference, stating which parent he wants to live with (at 16, s/he is more than old enough). While it is not binding on the judge, it will be taken seriously, assuming the parent OP prefers to live with is not unfit.

OMG!!! You are SO right, and I was SO wrong! I totally forgot about that TX quirk.

Thanks for the correction, Stealth. Sorry, Hickerson!!

Nothing, since he is no longer your father. Sorry.

Then your best bet would be to talk to your Mom about your wishes and whether there is any way you could finish HS where you are now.
