What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas
An issue came up on another board and I'm wondering about the legality of this.
The OP's sister, who was married for 21 years, moved out on her husband and son. It was apparently a surprise to everyone. This happened last month and this woman is in a new relationship. She wants to bring this new love interest to her sister's for the big Christmas dinner. She has basically told her sister, if they don't welcome her new lover, she will just go out of town with the new flame and take her son with her.
Sooo. .. my question is what are her legal rights to her son? He is still living with the Dad. I feel like she basically abandoned him. There apparently hasn't been any type of legal action yet. . .nobody's began divorce proceedings yet, etc.
