What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? NEW YORK
I am involved in a family court case where the CPS worker visited a possible placement home for one of my children. While she was there she revealed to this person the negative test results of my hair follicle test. Now when I called CPS to get the results of my test, part of the document that I received was the cover letter to which states that this is confidential information and can not be disclosed to anyone with out a court order. I know that this family member who was told this information did not obtain a court order to find out this information. Not only did the CPS worker tell my family member the results, but she also told her "she knew I did something to alter the results"; to which the accusation is false. I am wondering if I can sue this person for this release of information as well as slander. Not only that, but my 16 year old daughter was having a relationship with a 27 year old male. I have been to all sectors of the police, family court and victims assistance to no avail. How can I also go back on the state for endangering the welfare of a child for this. I am mad as hell because they came in my home and took my children based on wrongful allegations alledged my troublesome 16 year old after I put an end to the relationship when I found out about it. She told them that there was drugs in the house, to which there was and I had told the officer (who also busted her in school at 15 for possession of marijuana) that I had removed the marijuana from my daughters room a few days earlier along with a bong. The only reason I did not dispose of these items was because I wanted to make sure that I was not going to need them for evidence against my daughter if she did not get her act together. I know this is all very complicated...how do you think I feel. The CPS worker is trying to charge me with neglect for not getting her the help see needed but I also have a letter from the school that said that they were refering her to the student alcohol and substance abuse counsel. What are my options?
