Q: Can I legally be taken to court by one who lied to hospital to get drug addict baby released to them?
She gave birth on cocaine,courts placed kids with us.She skipped all court.Years later taking me to court for custody.Failed to mention she and her mother lied to hospital saying kids lived with ME to get baby released.They both skipped court.Now I pay a lawyer for court she’s dragged me into as if she never did the crime and her mother who co-signed the lie to doctors is appointed ‘supervisor of visitation’ between us.It feels like a fictional movie.Is this even legal?I plan on speaking the truth come trial but want to know-by law,does the judge have to address it?Isnt it a serious crime to commit fraud in the hospital situation?Theres a list of other things but I’m thinking this is the rock solid angle.Am I wrong?Im hoping the judge will learn of this and it will disqualify them and I also hope she will have to pay our legal fees.Am I wrong?
A: Yes. She can take you to court if she is the mother of the children. Yes. It is legal. If her request is denied or determined frivolous, you could be awarded your attorney fees insured.
