Legal Question in Family Law in New York
Child Custody
I allowed my son to visit his
grandmother in New York back in
April and she filed a petition to
receive custody of my son and won. I
was never served papers. How was it
possible? Why did the judge grant
her custody?

Re: Child Custody
I have no idea. More information and investigation is needed. If the Court did not have jurisdiction and if the information presented to the Court is false, you would have to file a writ to have your son presented before the Court and an application to terminate the prior decision.
