Re: guardian

You should file a Motion for custody in the court that originally decided the custody question, and send a copy of that Motion to the father. Also send a copy of it to the probate court. If another court than probate has jurisdiction, the probate court may not proceed. Only one court at a time may exercise jurisdiction over a child.
