Philadelphia, PA asked in Child Custody and Child Support for Pennsylvania

Q: How can I modify a custody order when the courts are closed. We had a temporary order but doesn't let me see my child.

What can I do to get my visits back with my daughter? In addition to that she is collecting aftercare money from me and my daughter no longer is in aftercare at all.

A: You can file an *emergency* motion to modify custody, and request the court to grant you time with your daughter.

You can do the same with Domestic Relations concerning a modification to eliminate the portion of the child support order for aftercare expenses.

Best of luck to you.
