Grandmother Stole Daughter, we want he back

[weenor]

How bout you skip the "process" and get a lawyer NOW...those papers are saying that your hubby has no legal basis for terminating his mother's guardianship and since he voluntarily signed the papers the first time, he may not have a legal basis..it seriously looks like he is facing dismissal.

The only things that really helped us at the Guardianship review was that the visitation order was amended so the Grandmother can longer tell us no when we go to pick her up, whether shes sick or not, The Judge told her that as parents we know how to take care of a sick child and it should be up to us whether we want to take her or not. (Grandmother uses "shes sick" alot of the times and wont let us have her) and the judge also told us how to go about filing the Termination of Guardianship (Grandmother was really mad about that, she almost got an "Intemp of Court" (not sure if that is how its spelled) because she told the judge "You cant tell them that" which made the judge mad. The last thing i would do is go in and tell a Judge what she can and cant do! Other then that is was just a basic review of Guardianship and it was supposed to be done every 6-12 months and it hadnt been done since the Guardianship was granted. She also ammended the order so that we can go to school meetings, and school functions along with being able to go to dance recitals and all that. so it did work out for us in a way but it was what everyone was telling us that it was. But she is calling the state on us and trying everything to get us in trouble and you know what, My husband was told by the D.A. that he should be filing charges on his mother for letting the sexual abuse happen to him and taking him to the pedophiles house and dropping him off and he wont, because its his mother and because of his daughter. She was subpenad to go to court on the guys case but they have said she will be a hostile witness whatever that is so hopefully she will hang herself. Well I pray everyday that it will work out for us.

What I dont understand about those papers is how can they use what his ex did against him. It was his ex who filed those papers for termination not him, he was there at court and he did tell the judge that he couldnt care for her at the time and that he did not want his ex to have her because his ex was unstable. How can they use something she did on him?

It is obvious by how you relate your story and answer questions that you have no understanding of what is happening, therefore it is a wise idea that a GAL be appointed as the court did for the child. Even though things went well for your husband, grandma still has guardianship of the child so the judge saw no reason to change that. Your husband needs to get an attorney, the GAL reprsents the child's interest, not your husband. The judge can only give your husband so many hints as what to do. Also remember, some facts will never change, that your husband willlingly signed the guardianship papers at a time when he couldn't care for his child and that his mother will always be his mother and the child has a relationship with her.
