She did attempt to call the authorities before her cellphone was taken, it didnt go through for some reason. the phone was maulfunctioning beforehand anyways.

the only reason her car is in her mom's name is coz her mom has a car that is in her name (they swaped). she does have the means to support her self and her child. The only reason custody was taken from her is coz the parents lied to the husband, who helped them obtain temporary guardianship. and as i said, the husband originally signed papers supporting the grandparents petition for temporary guardianship, however, he realizes what was really done and wants to have the order revoked and assist my friend, the mother.

No, custody was taken from her because she left her child without telling anyone she was leaving! That is considered neglectful!! If the cell phone was malfunctioning, she could have used a neighbors phone, a pay phone, or what about the home phone? The judge is not going to accept that as an excuse. After she decided to leave she could have called the husband and told him what was going on. Something about this story is not adding up to me.

she did not leave the child to be neglectful. she was physically forced out the door while trying to get her child, then the door was locked. she tried to call 911 while in the house and that was when the phone maulfunctioned. the area that the house is in.... doesnt really have any neighbors in close distance. once she got on the road she was followed by her father, who was the one who attacked her.

Okay, you obviously just want to make excuses for your friend. What you are not listening to is SHE HAD CHOICES!! Even if her father was following her, whenever she came upon the FIRST public place she could have gone in, and asked to use the phone, called the police and asked the police to meet her their. They would have escorted her back to the house to get her child!! Do you yourself have any children? If you do, could you imagine just leaving your child with someone that you claim just was abusive towards you?!?

Legally speaking, the mother needs to face the fact she has quite a few hurdles to jump. She has no police report to back her claims of abuse, she has the father of the child backing the parents originally, she has the fact she left the child in an abusive home. She REALLY needs a lawyer! Does she have an past police reports that can be used to show the abusive nature of the father?

yes she does have quite a few previous records. in fact, the parents tried to put a restraining order on her as well, which was already shot down in court. at that time, the account of abuse i mentioned was also brought up.

well, her previous police reports can either help her OR hurt her. Because basically they court can deduce that even though the father had previous reports of abuse against him the mother still chose to stay in the house with herself and her child. Putting them both in possible danger. That may also work against her!! That is why she needs a lawyer.

Poster says the motion for reconsideration is 01/06

I agree she needs to get an attorney ASAP to help get everything together before that hearing! Because if she does not get the kid back on that day, it is going to be alot harder for her.

The Dad obviously didn't want the 'responsibility'...and the fact he didn't take the child, and also supported the grand-parents...is going to reduce Mom's credibility re; her abuse claims. (The fact that previous reports also include reports against her...won't help either)

the one silver lining in this, is it's againgst the gp's rather than the other parent


with a lawyer she should be able to overcome this

I agree (& that is assuming all OPs information is correct)...but I am getting the impression there are financial issues~ and Mom is going to have to come up with a considerable sum of money to fight this properly. There is also not much time before the 1/6 re-consideration hearing.

financial issues are the only reason she doesnt have a lawyer atm. other then that, now that the father supports the grandparents not recieving custody..... im sure that she wouldnt have a problem fighting it. as far as supporting the daughter, that is not an issue. one of the reasons she moved to where she did is that she can support her with out any aditional income from the father. she can afford on her income alone a home, utilities, food, and other costs of living and support for her and her daughter.

Is she going to have a lawyer before 01/06/06 reconsideration hearing?
