Re: child abandoment
Your stepdaughter has an immediate need for an attorney. She will need to file for divorce or a suit affecting parent-child relationship.
Leaving the child is an issue that will need to be addressed, and if she had valid reasons, is not insurmountable. Three weeks does not constitute a legal abandonment, but it will have to be countered.
