Do you mean a copy of the report from DCF of the home study? I'm not sure about CT laws re; this, but you can always contact the person who did the study & ask them.What is the name of your state? CT Are parents entitled to the home study done by DCF in a custody case?
There are no complaints/reports made. I filed for a termination of my child's fathers' rights. The judge ordered a home study by dcf before the hearing. It's complete and I wasn't sure whether or not I could see it before the hearing.Why would DFC be involved if there were no complaints/reports made ?
They would have no reason to .
I may be wrong but if a Judge ordered it, I doubt you would have access to it .There are no complaints/reports made. I filed for a termination of my child's fathers' rights.

Actually, the review will be provided to the judge and attorneys. You, personally, are most likely NOT entitled to your own copy of it.Yes, the study was done on myself and the father. I actually heard from my attorney and he advised the homestudy would be available for my review after the hearing.

No ongoing relationship.What is the basis for your motion to terminate dad's parental rights?
It normally takes much more then no ongoing relationship to have a parents rights terminated. That said, it is very doubtful that you will have access to your home study prior to the court hearing. It's even more doubtful that you will have access to dad's home study at all.No ongoing relationship.
