Q: I was never served bc the father of my son gave the wrong address can I get another date or extension ?
He’s filing for visitation rights. I have not denied him to see our son , I’ve tried to get him to come get him & he would tell me no. The only reason why I know there is a progress call is because I reached out to him about our son and that’s when he told me the court date. He told me on a holiday weekend & 4 days before the court. I’m not prepared, it’s such a short notice and i never got served nor got a notice. but I have created a visitation calendar from 2023-2030 with the best interest for our son. And printed out proof of him telling me no when I asked him to come get his son. But I’m not sure if the judge would even want to look at it. He also lives 3 hours away and never talked to me about it , he just left. He has come for the baby once ever since he moved but that was it. He stoped paying child support & doesn’t have a job & is somewhat handicapped, he has a knee injury and walks in crutches.
A: A lawyer first needs to see the papers he has filed. Go to the courthouse and get them.
