Saint Petersburg, FL asked in Family Law for Florida

Q: I'm non domicile parent and I'm being refused visitation for the last year. My number has been blocked multiple times.

My ex is disabled and granted domicile, and his mother has proxy over my ex because he is legally disabled. He is still of sound body and mind but she has gone in his place to hearings and he has shown up for some after. Is that legal?

A: It is unclear what you mean by "proxy over [your] ex". Has she been appointed guardian of your ex-spouse? Also, your are indicating that "he is legally disabled", and then you indicate that he "is still of sound body and mind"; which is it? In any case, unless his mother is licensed to practice law, it appears that she is practicing law without a license, which is a crime.

A: No, it appears to be practicing law without a license, assuming she is not licensed to practice in Florida.

It is unclear what you mean by "proxy"; do you mean guardianship? And if he is disabled, he is not "of sound body and mind"; which is it?
