My question involves child abuse or neglect in the State of: VA
My husband and I have court ordered, full legal and physical custody of my 6 month old cousin. We have a dispositional hearing soon regarding the charges against his mother for abuse/neglect.
My research has shown that custody of the child is normally decided during this hearing. Since we already have permanent custody of him, what else could be addressed?
The courts also appointed us an attorney which is very unexpected since we are not charged with a crime.
I have all intentions of calling the social services caseworker on Monday for her input.
Thanks in advance
