This appears to be more of a business question than a legal question.

If your dad disposes of his real property during his lifetime, or if your step-sister does using his power of attorney, any beneficiary deed for that property would be rendered moot.

The court can assist you by waiving the filing fee so you can file your response. You will need to apply for waiver using court forms. Look at the Maricopa County Superior Court website forms and instructions.
I helped my sister-in-law cosign for a home almost 4 years ago, she assured me that her lender had told her that in 6 months to a year she could refinance and get me off the loan. Obviously, that hasn't happened and now I can't purchase my own home because of how high my debt-to-income is... View More

If you are also on the deed to your sister's home, you may be able to force the sale of the home through a partition action in the Superior Court. If not, your options are few without your sister's cooperation. Sister will need to refinance or sell the home to get you off the loan.

Contact the police and see if you can obtain their help to get your son back now. You should have your son's birth certificate.
