For example, "Parent must complete parenting class," is all the case plan states. But let's say the caseworker prefers ABC class, but you go with XYZ class because ABC class has a wait list. Since the case plan is vague, would XYZ class be approved by the judge?

However a case related to the disabled child must be filed before the age of 18 for the family law courts to have jurisdiction over the matter beyond the age of majority. So the question is, was there ever a case that was initiated that child... View More
