Meeting with lawyer tomorrow...

Your little girl and her suitcase are forever ingrained in my memory! :'( Look what that showed her: Mommy is here ALWAYS! 100% of the time. Mommy would never forget you........YOU ARE LOVED BABY GIRL!!!! I am sorry I'm seeing this so late....I hope you are able to read it before your meeting. YES! I think he is capable of reporting you for kidnapping.....once the police see that is a complete waste of their time and tax dollars, they will laugh and send N back to his car for a good nights rest! The only other thing I can think of that hasn't been mentioned is possibly a Guardian at Litem. This would be a person, usually but not always a lawyer, who would be hired to represent your daughter and her best interest....this is a third party who the judge will definately listen to. He/she will interview you and N, see you with your daughter, N with your daughter and interview anyone you put on a list as he/she see fit. Now - this cost $$$. I think I've paid my daughter's at litem a total of $600.00. N has to pay the same amount. IDK if this will help you but it couldn't hurt to ask your attorney and shows that you are doing your research.... let us know....

When asking for a Parenting or Custody Evaluation, there are a number of items you should have your attorney specify with respect to the "Findings" or "Recommendation" section of the evaluator's final report. Instruct your attorney to request (in writing) that the following items be covered in the evaluator's report. * Request a recommendation of custody or residential placement. The evaluator should clearly spell out who is their choice for the custodial parent (sometimes referred to as the Primary Residential Parent). This is one of the most important pieces of data in the entire report, and is often the sole reason for such an evaluation being done. Nevertheless, some evaluators have actually omitted this information from their final report. Request that the evaluator state clearly who they feel should be considered as the best choice for the custodial parent. * Request that the evaluator perform a "home study" on both you and the other parent. Also request that the results be disclosed in the evaluator's final report. In some cases this may not be required, but if there is any suspicion that the other parent's home environment is not suitable for children in any way, specifically request that the evaluators examine or address this issue. Provide examples of what they should look for or what you think they may find. * Request that the evaluator administer psychological evaluations and/or an MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory) test to both of you. The validity of the results of these tests (especially the MMPI) are well recognized and accepted. Have your attorney specify that the MMPI results be discussed (at least in general terms) in the final report. * Request that collateral contacts supplied by you and the other parent be interviewed. (Do not include his latest girlfriend - you can ask for the prior girlfriend or people he works/worked with) Have your attorney specify this be included in the evaluation. Often, collateral contacts are where the evaluator will get the "real" story as to what is going on. Some examples of good collateral contacts might be: former employers (assuming their job history is poor), ex-friends that he may be at odds with, previous spouses, neighbors and daycare workers that he may have had contact with. Also, any previous therapists or mental-health workers he's been involved with would be good candidates for collateral contacts. Not covering these items may be grounds for the value of the report to be called into question or even invalidated by either attorney. Should the evaluator omit any of the above items, contact the evaluator and firmly request that they write an addendum or letter specifically addressing the points that were left out. http://deltabravo.net/custody/evallist.php ~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Pathologicals only discard the best, most precious of gems of people... not the worst.

Sorry bout the middle name...it's a Texas thing! My middle name is "June"(given to me by my friends, not my mother).

Write down everything you want to go over as it can be very overwhelming. I'm sure the lawyer will be able to guide you along. Are you consulting with more than one? And/or have you gotten a good recommendation? Was there any sort of court order when the "kidnapping" occurred?
