Defamation: Child protective services and false reporting

BTW - thanks for replying to my posts.

check out the texas family code - chapter 261. to compliment what you found regarding immunity, i know that there is mention of filing criminal suits against those that make false reports, but these types of suits need to be filed by the state agency - cps. how to get them to do their job is maybe the question here. nonetheless, around 06/05 the penalty in texas went up on this to a felony, jail time and up to a 10k fine. i'll see if i can find the exact doc on this and link it in my next post. not to mention, immunity only applies in a report with good intentions, but i would imagine that the burden of proving the mal intent would be placed on me so how can i turn this around so that the person making the false report has to prove why it is that they called?

I am asking for anyone who knows about this chapter 261-- I am currently in this situation of a false claim. Court coming soon... need advice and help
