Legal Question in Family Law in Kentucky

I am very upset and confused about a current desion made in nelson co ky. I went to get custody of my 2 sons from 50 50 to full with his father getting everuonther weekend and on wends. prior 2 years ago we divorced and i had a tatoo which is now covered up and abused pain pills for a short while. Not only did i but my ex as well. went back to court end of jan and verdict came back it remains the same. My ex is dating a big to do in this county which her fanily and herself is friends with the judge. my ex was turned into cps and nothing was ever done. my older son goes to communicare and his counseler turned him in for mental, verbal, physical and emotional abuse and was over looked in court. He was drunk in aug and has his other son with no lis drive thru Ga because he was to drunk that also did not matter. picking my son up and toss him acroos the football field and have him admitting it on tape..also does not matter. so i was not given a fair trial. i want to take it out of nelson co where he knows her and she knows him in this small town to hardin co so it will be fair

If it was less than 30 days since you received the judgment, you can appeal the decision to a higher court. Otherwise, if you've missed your appellate deadline, the court's ruling will stand. If you can prove an actual bias of the judge, you can move to have him recuse, but likely he won't. You should discuss these options and others with a local attorney.
