What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NEW YORK
my mother is trying to take custody of my 7yr old daughter. i have issues between her and my husband they dont like each other.
quick background:3 kids in household, my stepson-7, my daughter-7 and their baby sister-8 mths old. husband is a police officer with the NYPD.
she tried to refuse to let me pick up my daughter and i had to have a police officer meet me at her house just for me to get her. I have sole legal custody, my child was visiting with her grandmother since its summer vacation. the officer on the scene told her she cannot withold my child, this is a domestic dispute and she will have to take this to court.
she filed a child abuse report against me and i had cps come to my house, along with police officers. it was a whole debacle. the preliminary police inspection showed nothing was wrong and they will be noting that in their report{which i have the report number and im waiting for a copy of it}
the cps worker also interviewed my husband and big daughter. I will be meeting with her tomorrow morning since i was at family court all day on wednesday getting a restraining order on the grandmother and i cant say to no end how much it SUCKS that im even having to say i had to do this....
the allegations were pretty nasty and im hurt that my mother is doing this to me just b/c she doesnt like my husband. she has also threatened to call his job and get him in trouble with internal affairs and state that he is abusing his children.
part of the allegations were: my husband hits me and the girls, he doesnt feed or take care of the girls, the house is unsanitary, there is no food in the house etc. also since i have pets, the animals are not taken care of etc.
now to be fair even though they are treating me sh**t, my daughter loves her grandparents, i know the courts are more than likely going to allow some type of visitation so i am going to deal with that...
my question is what to expect, has anyone else had to deal with the grandparent trying to do the same thing and what general advice does everyone have? there are lot more details to this situation i will bring up if anyone would like further detail. i just didnt want to type a huge long post here.
