What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
Maryland
My daughter went to pick up her 11 year old son at his father's home at the end of his scheduled weekend custody visit. She had her 3 year old with her.
She parked across the street and walked to the front door and knocked.
The "father" opened the door and began to shout , "Can't you read!!??. There is a no trespassing sign right there!! I'm calling the police!!"
She got her son back and went home .
Now , she has received a summons to appear in court for trespassing and 4th degree burglary (what ever that is) .
This "father' has been in child support arrears for years and in court many times.
He has been found in contempt and just pays enough to stay out of jail.
This is obviously a situation that was stirred up because the "father" wants to get back at her for his failure to pay child support .
She cannot afford an attorney .
what can she do ?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
