Don't call the police. They can't do anything.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Alabama.
I had a deposition scheduled for today to depose my ex. It was postponed again for the third time. Her lawyer sent a message to my lawyer that my ex would not be available due to her being out of town. The first postponement was because her lawyer was unavailable that day. The second because she couldn't get off work and now the third time.
I contacted my son's teacher to find out if my son was in school today. He is not. If she is out of town and taking my son out of school and especially if she is taking him out of state, she is supposed to contact me to let me know.
I have tried to call her this morning and she did not answer nor returned my call which is normal for her. With her taking him out of school you would think she would answer to let me know why she was going out of town and taking him with her.
What are my options? Can I or should I call the police?
Call the school to get their policy on unexcused absences. And ask your attorney what to do. If she was out of town with the child rather than some essential business issue, you may be able to get her charged with contempt.
