I hope that cps does find your case unsubstantiated and closes it and that is the end of it. However, I would caution you that cps has been know to say one thing and do another. It is water under the bridge now but I would have been more careful at allowing them into my home (you don't have to unles...

I have read everything you posted and hope you can rally back and gain the courage to fight. You can do this but there are things that I see missing from what you have described. First, I would not necessarily think in terms of winning and losing. You are on a mission to get your child back in your ...

I am sorry that you and your family are having to go through this but at least it sounds like you have a private attorney who is knowledgeable and can help steer you through the dark paths of the cps system. Hopefully cps has made enough mistakes that you will be able to have your grandkids returned...

dgaw2001, I am so sorry that you are being subjected to this. Please read all of the information here on the site to prepare yourself for dealing with cps. I understand that you wish to find out why they are investigating you as anyone would. However, the fact is they are investigating you and they ...

I replied to you in your other post. Please try and just post in your original post so we can keep track of everything in one place.

Yes..a court appointed attorney and he isn't helpful. I can't afford to hire one. The entire system is crooked..so I don't feel positive this trial will work out in my favor. But it's defiantly worth trying. I know if I agree to their "plan" I won't have my kids for a year, maybe not at a...

Continuation of notes - CPS still holds all the cards, will not offer expungement to father even after they lost the court battle. He gets buy on jobs here and there and working for other family members. He is out of a car. He does borrow one to come and see the children. He is very good about it a...

Well, not sure if anyone is interested but I try to keep this thread up to date. Last week I decided with the help of an independent attorney that the relationship between my attorney and the judge has become poisoned and to seek out a new attorney. This is less than a week to the hearing mind you. ...

Pretrial scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. Will find out then if the hearing, which is scheduled for next week will proceed. I plan on taking most of next week off no matter what happens to the schedule. I can barely think about anything else.

My hearing is scheduled to begin in just over two weeks and I'm kind of freaking out. My attorney may request an adjournment as my son is due to have a few independent evaluations conducted as part of proposed changes in his IEP. My attorney thinks that the evals may provide additional information w...

Good luck, hoping for a positive out come for you.

The reason that I have been kept from seeing my son is that his mother had him being seen by a child trauma specialist which concluded after one visit that he had ptsd from what allegedly occurred. Now that the hearing is next month it's kind of a moot point. I have not seen divorce corp. but will l...

That's good news regarding the attorney and the PI. I don't know how it works there but my experience has been that most attorney's specialize in a particular area of the law and that criminal attorney's would be different than Family Court attorneys but I'm sure you can contact the local bar and se...

Just got back from pre-trial. Actually had an appearance last week as well which is unusual as they are typically spaced a month apart. Anyway, the news is that the hearing date scheduled for next month, two days back to back, is still on. There was some concern last appearance that the Co was going...

Thank you for your reply and I wish you all the best as well. I've not been checking in here as much as I was but certainly am still dealing with this. Next court date in a few weeks and of course the hearing in March. I read your post and glad you are out of jail. I hope you are able to get the cri...

Did they present you with a court order when removing the child from the home?

I think it would be best if you contacted an attorney familiar with family court matters involving child abuse cases.

So cps has provided you with written notice that they are investigating an allegation of abuse of your children (child/children must be named). Does the notification identify you as the subject of the investigation? As the parent, even if you were not identified as the subject of the investigation y...

over seven months away from my wonderful son. Every day is a struggle. Last week my first hearing date set for March 2015. County continues to play keep away with my son. No supervised visitation as there is a childhood trauma specialist who claims my son has ptsd and it would be detrimental to him ...

back in court tomorrow. six months now that I've not had any contact with my son. sometimes it's really just too much to endure.

you should really have an attorney at this point, especially as you have signed the intervention. That can't be undone, but you need to marshal up all the forces at your disposal that you will need to defend yourself and your children. The promise of them going away is an empty one and you should pr...

I'm sorry I didn't see this till just today. I would assume you have already met with the detective. Had I read this sooner, I would have recommended to you to not meet with the detective but to seek council and have attorney speak to the detective. You don't mention what the allegation is but I get...

Thanks Monkette31. I appreciate your kind words and will look into what you have suggested. I also have an appointment with my personal counselor next week and am very much looking forward to that. Again, many thanks

still don't have investigation report. I've since written a letter requesting a copy of report and all information on my case. My attorney doesn't think I'll get much information that we don't already have. last court date the co has disclosed that my son has been seeing a child trauma specialist (t...

I'd suggest writing a letter to the CW and copying the supervisor and/or the head of the agency. Ask them to clarify why they are requesting further visit/interview, etc. and attach a copy of your documentation that the case has been closed. Mail registered, return receipt requested so that you have...

you say they wanted to indicate you as well. did they investigate you. you would know this as they must provide you written notice that you are being investigated. Next, why, if you have not been indicated are you performing any services? Also, if you cannot afford an attorney, then one should be ap...
