Q: Can the prosecution change the reason they took you to court after 3 appearances in front of the judge?

We were taken to court for truancy then after like 3 appearances my daughter was removed from our home by children and youth and a family court judge because she wasnt doing schoolwork. They said i wasnt providing her with an education shes 15 and in cyber school i provided her with the tools to get an education I even offered to help her she chose not to do it but she wasnt truant so they changed their reason to her not doing schoolwork its been 30 days since they took her and now theyre sending her to my moms and theyre going to allow my boyfriend who lives in our home to do schoolwork with my kid at my moms but she cant come home.

I need a lawyer that works on contingency fees and covers Lehigh County PA
