Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona
Stopping legal adoption
Can I stop a termination of parental rights suit against
the biological father of my child? I initiated the cae and it
is a few months before the trial date. In addition, to this
point there has been no agreement made between the
two parties involved.

Re: Stopping legal adoption
Thank you for your inquiry. Without additional details, I am not certain that my answer will address your question, but generally speaking, if you are the petitioner in the case, you have the right to dismiss your petition. A word of caution - once you dismiss the case, you might not ever be permitted to reinstate it. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your case in greater detail.
