Re: Can i bring her back home?

If your "daughter" is living with her "husband", she is an emancipated minor and you have no further say what is in her best interest. If the father's $12,000 in arrears has been reduced to judgment, you might be able to take steps to collect it. If no judgment, it's lost.

Re: Can i bring her back home?

After reading your question I am uncertain if your daughter is currently living with her husband or her father. If she is living with her husband you cannot force her to come back to your house. If she is living with her father you can bring back to your house by enforcing the divorce decree. One question I have is how old is your daughter? If she is over 10 she can choose which parent she lives with. For a more indepth discussion of these issues call Landon Northcutt at 254-968-5400.

Re: Can i bring her back home?

I too am confused by your post. If you live in the Houston area, I offer a free consultation.

Call or email me.

Best of luck to you!

Re: Can i bring her back home?

I will presume that she is not living with "her" husband but your ex-husband. Otherwise, you are out of luck.

If no court action, then you can go get her and have her come home with you. I suggest you take steps to bring her back before your ex takes steps to change the order. If he lives in a different county than issued the original divorce decree, then after six months he can have the case transfered to his county, forcing you to fight there. As for the arrears, don't waste too much time bringing a motion to enforce and reduce the arrearage to a judgment. If you have any further questions, give me a call.
