You are not legally responsible for your aunt unless you have taken on that responsibility.

No, but the GAL will report bad things about you to Court.
The bond is paid and it’s been 4 years been to court couple times then Covid hit and now it’s been 4 years need two know what I need two do will I be put back in jail if he takes his self off my bond live In Tennessee

answered on Nov 24, 2023
That is probably up to the bondsman, who you should call as you are his prisoner. If the bondsman asks the Court to exonerate him, then the Judge may set a bond or possibly release you on your own recognizance. But 4 years is a long time not to go to trial. Talk to your lawyer. Be ready with a... View More

I'm very sorry to hear about this terrible situation with your son. You and your son were clearly denied rights and appropriate care. In terms of recourse, I would recommend taking these steps:
1. Consult with a civil rights attorney regarding potential ADA violations and... View More

Yes I think he's schizophrenics he's been having voices and it's starting to get really scary to be around him. After 21 years of marriage I've never been afraid to be around him. I'm afraid the voices are going to have him harm me or someone else

This is in TN and this attorney did not represent him nor was it ever brought up. It was discovered afterwards when an email account that was compromised by spouse reflected such and it remains so. My ability to access information was removed.
What County does he have to file?

answered on Nov 1, 2023
The father would need to file for emergency custody in the county where the children live, which is Dickson County.
Unfortunately, due to the nature of internet questions and responses, the information provided can ONLY be for general informational purposes and cannot constitute legal advice.
My child's father has 50% custody and has been refusing to let her come over during my scheduled time because he doesn't want my partner around her he says she already has a man in her life and that it's him so he's refusing to let her come over.

answered on Oct 30, 2023
It is not legal for your child's father to stop her from coming over to your house during your scheduled custody time. You both have the right to equal parenting time with your child, and he cannot interfere with that right simply because he does not like your partner.

I’ve also tried to find him and could not.

answered on Oct 23, 2023
Probably need a private investigator to check thoroughly. Check SSA Death List also. Check with all known family members. You might talk a Chancellor into an abandonment ground divorce, which is almost impossible. Publication Service will be necessary in addition to whatever service attempts... View More

answered on Oct 23, 2023
If the DNA is positive, you probably will not be given the chance to terminate your rights. Obviously the mother (or the State) is after you for child support. Probably should hire an attorney now.
The father of my children had filed a petition and had a court hearing which granted him emergency temporary custody of my children but the case was heard in front of a substitute judge and I did not find out about any of this information until 3 days after the court hearing was held and approved....

It will be enforced unless you request a rehearing quick. Even then you will probably have to file your response to the original petition and go to the actual hearing on the merits.
He got his sister to be his power of attorney over him can that hurt me in getting half of his porperty

answered on Oct 19, 2023
In Tennessee, a power of attorney granted by your husband to his sister typically doesn't directly impact property division in a divorce. Property division in divorce is based on equitable distribution principles, considering factors such as the duration of the marriage and contributions of... View More

In Tennessee, you can initiate a child support case without the father's Social Security number, although having it can expedite the process. If you don't have the number, other identifying information like date of birth, address, or place of employment can be helpful. A DNA test may be... View More
In regards to this same question. If there is evidence of the abuse, can that help in any of the case? Such as audio, video & screen shots from various text messages, FB messenger, etc.

answered on Oct 20, 2023
Well it is possible. There are no set rules on custody or visitation, and the litigation can be almost endless.
