child custody paperwork?
My baby’s father and I are having a issue. He has hed our daughter in his care for now 16 days and we refuses to give her back to me. There is nothing court ordered so when i call the cops they just let me see her for 10 min and then she stays with him. We have never had a issue like this before that’s why there is nothing court ordered. Well on the 1st of this month i went to the court house and filed a new case. Im just waiting for our court date and everything. My question is does anyone know what i can do in the mean time to get her back? If there is some paperwork i can get to speed up the process? Im in denver CO. I cant afford a lawyer and its really hard to get a low income lawyer so im trying to do this on my own. Thanks
I cant just sit here and wait and only see my daughter every couple of days for 10 min. There has to be some paperwork i can fill out to speed this up.
If you weren’t married to the child’s father, you automatically have sole custody of the child until the courts rule otherwise. And if the alleged father has not been to court to have a dna paternity test done, he isn’t the legal father yet and he has no rights to the child at all! The police should be enforcing this.
Did you tell them that you were a single birth mother and that the alleged father has yet to be determined by the courts? Because as far as the courts are concerned, you have sole custody now because you are the birth mother so your parentage is known, but for all the courts know, you slept with an army of men (no insult intended) and he may not be the father. And if he isn’t the father, what is he doing keeping your child from you? You go back to that police station and you ask to speak to a supervisor and you tell them that the fatherhood has not been confirmed by the court and you want your baby back now! Also, did you file an emergency request to have your baby returned now? Tell them that you are breastfeeding and that your milk has dried up because he kept the baby from you (you should have been breastfeeding).
As for the court case, you should not be doing this on your own. The custody of your child is at stake. If you have to sell everything or borrow from family, do so, but you have to have a lawyer, if only to make sure that the appropriate paperwork is completed properly. And make sure that when you do get in front of the judge, you let him know (through the lawyer) that you barely allowed to see your child and that you are afraid the father will take the child and keep it from you again. Ask that your sole custody be confirmed (don’t accept mediation as a short cut or you will be screwed over) and ask for supervised visitation only for the man (if he proves to be the father).
Finally, for those who think that men make equal parents of children. Did they get pregnant and carry the child to term? Did they give birth to the child? And are they the ones to breastfeed? It would be nice that parents are equal but mother nature herself has declared them not to be. And a young baby needs to be with her mother as breast feeding is best for the child. And anyone who denies that breast milk not best, is being politically correct. This baby belongs with its mother.
