Title: temporary custody
Post by: helpingdad on Jan 04, 2007, 06:46:12 PM

Just wanted to update you on Dad's case. 2 kids have been living with Dad since July. Mother has little contact with kids but did want to give up custody.


Dad had a pre-trial hearing for custody of 2 kids. Mother did not show up. She had 4 continuances from 10/06- 01/07. Magistrate gave Dad temporary custody of kids. This was a victory for Dad who for a while wasn't sure what to make of the continuances given to Mother. Magistrate set final hearing for approximately 3 weeks from today. Is there anything Dad can do to prepare for the hearing?

Thanks for your help.

Have evidence that the kids are happy -- video of kids playing. School report that kids are doing well. Physcian report that kids are healthy.

Stuff like that.
