If you were not born in the UK and do not have British citizenship, you will need to go through the proper channels to obtain a British passport. The fact that your father's second family has British passports does not automatically entitle you to one.

Xmas day and then her dad got her form xmas at 5 til Monday Jan 2 nd 5:pm now he is saying it is weekend coming up I told him no that it’s mine am I wrong
answered on Jan 4, 2023
This weekend is the first weekend of January. Your parenting plan likely addresses who has possession of the child using language like “1st, 3rd, and 5th weekends of each month.” So you have to read your court order to see who has the child on the 1st weekend of the month.

In Arkansas, there isn't a specific "homewrecker" charge in the legal sense. However, if you're referring to a civil action for alienation of affection or criminal charges related to adultery, it's important to note that statutes of limitations can vary depending on the type of legal action.
With me. I currently live in the home.

To help in a sole custody case, consider documenting incidents of abuse with dates, times, and descriptions. Save written communication that demonstrates abusive behavior. If there are witnesses, gather their contact information. Document any negative impact on the child's well-being.

Yes. At the end of the day, it's up to the prosecutor whether charges against you proceed. A victim's wishes are only part of the equation. You're also admitting to assaulting the victim on a public website. Not recommended. I do suggest you speak with an attorney in your area who... View More

It would depend on the facts of your case. Was the custody order out of a juvenile case? Were the parents awarded any visitation? Have they been visiting with your granddaughter? Have they been paying you child support? If the parents haven't had any relationship with your granddaughter... View More

Generally speaking, visitation and child punishment are entirely separate issues (though they may seem related). One public policy consideration is that, as a society, we don't want parents effectively penalized due to a child's bad behavior and we don't want child punishment... View More
