Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
I have full custody of my son when me and my ex-husband split up. He has to follow steps in order to see my son because he was a violent father. My court papers do not say whether or whether not he completed any of the steps he was suppose to take in order to gain partial custody, and back in 2005 he failed to complete the first step all the way. He has not paid child support since my child was born. He is going into Kindergarten this year and my fear is that this father will try to take him after school without my consent. The principal at the school told me that because it does say whether or whether not my ex-husband completed any of the steps in the custody papers, that he can take him. Does he have legal right?

Based on what you have written, it appears that you may need to return to the Court that issued the prior order and have that specific Court clarify the order. If my law firm can assist you with this legal issue or any other legal matter, please contact us at [email protected] to arrange for an initial consultation.
You definately need a certified copy of your divorce decree and to sit down with an attorney to discuss your options.
You can go to 1115 Congress in the basement of the Family Law Center and get a cert. copy of your decree for $1 per page.
