What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CT
My brother and mother live in KY. He called me 2 weeks ago, and asked to come to visit. We picked him up, and brought him to CT. We then realized how miserable he was in KY, and he said he wants to stay with us. He is 15, will be 16 on 8/20. When he spoke to our mother and told her, she said he was dead to her. He called her back yesterday, to tell her he needs her to sign the guardianship paperwork, so we can enroll him in school. She said she will not. She then said that she is going to get the US Marshall after me for kidnapping. She had our other brother text my little brother and said that if he is not back in KY by tonight, that she will be going to the police to press charges for custodial interference.
She has no job, and they live in terrible conditions. Their house has fleas and roaches. His only enjoyment there, is a dog that is about to die. It is being eaten alive by fleas. She is verbally abusive to him, and he is completely miserable. Since coming to stay with us, we can already see the changes in him, and his happiness. That is all we ant for him, to just be a kid while he can.
What kind of rights do I have as his brother(I'm 28), what kind of rights does he have as a 15yo, soon to be 16yo?
My wife and I want to file for guardianship, but are not sure how or where to do that. We really cannot afford a lawyer to do this. However, we cannot bring ourselves to bring him back.
Any and all help is appreciated. the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
