Legal Question in Family Law in Indiana
Abandonment
I am the step mother of a 12 year old boy. His mother disappears for months at a time. Her last disappearance lasted for 6 months. FYI, disappearances meaning NO CONTACT WHATSOEVER. My husband has full physical and joint legal custody. She has recently came back and filed for full physical custody. What is the time limit for abandonment? Can we file for that even though she's back now. God only knows how long she's going to stay this time.

There are far more details that I am sure you have not provided. You really need to speak with an attorney in person for guidance on this situation. good luck
