Re: abduction
Dear Ray,
I apologize I was unable to respond to your inquiry sooner. As today is Thursday, I hope the proceeding went well for you and I hope you will let me know how it went. My advice would not have changed anything for you. I was going to advise you to go ahead on in yourself and tell the judge what is happeneing in pro-per (representing yourself). Judges usually grant the self-represented wide latitude especially in a matter such as yours. In this situation, you should have all the information documented and be prepared to tell your case to the judge in the best way possible.
Good luck-Martin
