Whether an officer elects to file a charge for criminal interference with custody is unfortunately a case by case decision. Another option that you have is to file a warrant application for the interference, which will put that decision before a judge to determine whether there is probable cause... View More

She was fine when I dropped her off. Also she was not complaining of any medical issues to her dad or myself. Her dad was a work when the wife took her. The father is not legitimized. What legal action can I take?
answered on Jan 21, 2020
The real question is how what your child harmed by this? If the stepmother felt she had a medical issue and the urgent care either treated it or decided there was no issue, there doesn't seem to be any harm done to your child.

Any money She buys it on alcohol and stuff could she legally get in trouble holding his money from him?

More information is needed before an accurate answer can be provided. Generally, the father can file a modification and present evidence of the son’s actual living arrangements. It is best to consult an attorney who can assist you all with the details of your case.

We are both on the lease, she has told me she wants me to move out within 60 days. I know she is seeing a coworker but don't have photo/video evidence. I understand bedrooms and bathrooms are off limits. Are common areas open for surveillance without the other family members being aware?

If there is no present divorce action filed, there is nothing prohibiting you from putting cameras in the home that you also reside in.
The NCP doesn’t see the child at all nor does he hold insurance on the child, but does work
answered on Jan 11, 2020

If she hasn't been served, she legally is allowed to move. You probably need to hire a private investigator to find her and serve her.
