Dallas, TX asked in Child Custody and Family Law for Louisiana

Q: Is a petition for temporary custody a temporary custody or a mandate for temporary custody without dates specified?

Me & the father both signed this petition to his mom. We are trying to figure out what kind of custody she has if it was only a petition for temporary custody. Done by a notary republic. Monroe Louisiana

A: Without seeing the document in which you are referring, we are only guessing what it is and what's been done. I would contact a custody or family law attorney in your area and bring the paperwork to the attorney you see and discuss your options. Plus if you go to Court, you really should have an attorney. Good luck.
