Raleigh, NC asked in Child Custody, Divorce and Family Law for North Carolina

Q: Changing Custody Rights from Another State

ONE has full custody of children from another state from living there for two years after leaving NC until returning many years ago. ONE is quite controlling of the kids from TWO. TWO wants to have either (by people's law since God's law differs) half rights or no custody papers at all. Courts should not dictate when someone wants to be with their children, when there is no reason to keep away (no abuse, drugs, drink, etc). Only has no custody rights at all from living out of state at the time without money to travel and hire a layer. So, automatic lose.

What can TWO do now to change from having no rights, according to human courts, so TWO can see kids more often without the abuse and control of ONE? The custody is from another state enacted several ago. All are residents of NC.

Thank you.

A: TWO is simply going to have to bite the bullet and hire an attorney or if TWO want's to invoke god's law, I suppose TWO could ask god to smite ONE. An attorney will likely yield better results.
