What is the name of your state? Texas, this also relates to WA state.
To be as brief as possible...
1996 - wife runs off to WA with son. I file and get Temp Orders and get son back
1997 - she returns, case remains open but we never dismiss case
Oct. 2002 - she splits for WA again, this time she files for Protective order on bogus abuse claim, I go to WA with Temp Orders and a new Writ of Habeas Corpus from judge. WA court grants PO and ignores TX orders
Jan 2003 - hearing in TX court, judge vacates TO and Writ due to WA not honoring orders
Feb 2003 - I file in Orange County, TX where I am now a resident
March 2003 - she files in WA
July 2003 - TX grants default divorce and does UCCJEA determination on jurisdiction, decides that TX has jurisdiction
August 2003 - WA grants her default div, custody and support
September 2003 - TX grants me custody and support and states that WA does not have jurisdiction to render orders
Now we both have custody orders, she has son and I haven't seen him in 13 months. Only get to talk on phone a couple times a month. We have hearing in December in TX on Motion for Expedited Enforcement and she filed Motion for New Trial. I want my son back. I need to file an appeal in WA, I am sure I can win the appeal. I don't know how to do the BRIEF. Is there anyone that wants to help?
Thanks for your time,
Mike Byrd
