Re: family law
I'll play the guessing game. Assuming everything you said is correct, it appears that your mother didn't oppose the guardianship and she didn't go to court to change the support order.
Re: family law
I believe there must be some facts and/or some information is missing.
However, there is one thing to remember guardianship is not adoption. However until I know more I can not give you an answer to your question.
Re: family law
I would agree with Mr. Lemmons if your facts are accurate. It appears your mother didn�t oppose the guardianship. You probably should have your mother consult an Attorney if she is confused about the outcome.
Feel Free to contact me if you would like to pursue this matter.
Good Luck!
