What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan
Son is 14. I have physical custody. Father and I have joint legal.
Son is facing incorrigibility charge (brought upon by me calling police three times when he ran away). To be clear, I called the police and officer said she was going to write report and submit this as incorrigibility.
My son and I have met with probation officer who's told me what his recommendation will be at pretrial this month. He said we don't need an attorney.
Son's father went to court to get a court appointed attorney. The attorney told me today that he can not talk to me as I'm an adversarial witness but that he'd need to speak to my son and my son's father.
Does this sound right, particularly the part about me not being able to be involved in the conversational part? Attorney also said it was required that my son be represented by attorney, contradicting what the probation officer said. Which is correct?
Thank you very much.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
