Q: Any way I can get an example as to what needs to be applied on the form JDF 1415 question 8 in modifying child custody
In 2011 my children's grandmother got custody tho I have lived with her since (and before) and always taken care of my children... In May 2018 I moved out from her home in pueblo CO and moved to Colo/spgs CO. In June of 2018 their grandmother gave them back to me because she had got evicted from her home and they have been with me since. I had enrolled them into school where they had a great education system,support, and achieved many certificates. I've maintained stability and provided for them in every way possible. The grandmother has no place for them as she lives with friends and family. On May 28th,2019 I let them go to pueblo for the weekend to visit for a family reunion. On that following Sunday they were supposed to bring them home and did not so my dad took me to go get them. They will not let them return home. Please any information will help
A: I am sorry to hear about your situation. It sounds like the grandmother has custody and if that is the case, she can keep the children pursuant to the terms of the order. If you feel that a modification is warranted due to a change in the suitability of the grandparent to have custody, you can file for a modification of allocation of parental responsibilities.
