    Default What Can a Parent Do After an Emergency Placement of Her Children With Relatives

    My question involves a child custody case from the State of Florida: Recently my children have been awarded to a grandparent through Extend Family Emergency Hearing. With documentation that was taken from me, claiming parental mental illness, child neglect, child abuse and more. Department of Children and Families were not included. DCF had no indication and every documentation submitted was returned and denied. Motion for rehearing, motion to appeal, etc. Provided proof and let both parties know. Grandparent is also on full disability and was awarded children. What am I allowed to do since rights were taken away.

    It sounds to me like you really need an attorney, badly.

    It sounds like this is way past the point of the emergency removal, and that you have had numerous court hearings about the removal.

    You should have a sense from what happened in those hearings, what is expected of you before you can regain custody.

    If for some reason you do not already have a lawyer, either retain a lawyer or petition for a court-appointed lawyer.
