Motion Hearing is Scheduled But I Haven't Been Served
My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Missouri
There's a court date set for a "motion to modify" and a TRO and the only reason I know this is I recieved a phone call from a GAL to speak with my child. I have not been served any papers and even talked to the Sheriff Dept. that stated that they knew of no such papers to be served to me. Court date just got moved ahead and now is suppose to be in a few days. Can they proceed with this without ever serving any papers? I'm trying to get an attorney but hard so come up with the money in such short time!
Thanks

Is this an emergency hearing?
No matter what, you need to respond! Go down to the court-house and ask to see the file - you need to see if proper service was done.
