What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Washington If my son is a runawayBecause it's Dad reported him I run away But he came and lived with me his mom there is no custody orders or parenting plan either. My son needs his close and personal items from His dads I need to know Since his dad reported him as a run away can I call the Police department and get a civil standby So that way we can get his stuff???
