Ive filed motions to modify already, ive been alienated went 18 days not seeing talking to my son after we were all living daily life together my name wasn't on the lease so I had to leave, he brings a new female in home can abuser sign custody to her? Also do I file a divorce or in civil in regards to the for costs & emotional damages. we've been off & on 11 yrs & he was the homes provider I took care of our son, his dad, the dog & worked 9hrs a week but every time he kicked me out I didn't have place to go my clothes have been thrown out & currently him & new female I was told my belongings in trash bags
A: He shouldn't be able to just sign custody over to another person. More information is needed and you should consult with a family law attorney to assess if married, your rights, options, etc. If not married any property issues would be civil.
