Title: Father refuses to provide address
Post by: pijay on Jun 06, 2012, 02:13:05 PM
Trying to file for joint custody, father refuses to provide address. Just found out that my son has not been attending his early intervention as recommended by Intermediate Unit. Children and Youth provide no assistance; there are no laws regarding early intervention or head start. Also, the people staying at the residence where my son is living are questionable, of course since they are relatives it does not seem to matter. CYS could care less that they are crack dealers and smokers.

There are ways around that -- Here in Alabama, the procedure might be different but I wanted to share so that you can understand that there is a legal path.

I was told to have the person served at the last two known addresses.  And when that doesn't work, I would have to file a motion to the court and ASK permission basically to have a public notice published in the local paper here and where I think the person might be for three weeks in a row.

And then.....move forward.

But your state and procedure might be different.

The clerk at the court can't practice law for you, but sometimes they can answer procedural questions.....fine line, and that's who helped me.  (No not against EX#2....someone else.)

Dad....just because there's a requirement, doesn't mean it happens......you're a good parent for doing it right.  Then there's other parents....
