Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Is There Justice??

Probably not. You need to speak with an attorney in the county which has jurisdiction over the case. Texas law will be controlling as that is where the child has always lived, Florida law is out of the picture. If the stepmother has an improper relationship withthe court/judge you can remove that Judge from the case. Good luck.

Long Distance Visitation

What is it that you would like to accomplish? If it is a change of custody that you want, you haven't demonstrated that it is warranted. If it is contact and visitation with your child that you desire, that might be arranged. If the two children are your children, then you might be entitled to a reduction of child support based on your new family circumstances. The fact that a person's new spouse is an assistant district attorney, especially in a county as large as Dallas, does not mean that a family judge is going to obey that parent. Why, it is quite hard to get judges to obey attorneys in the first place. The judges in Dallas who try family cases are not the same judges who handle criminal matters. They aren't even in the same building. The buildings are so far apart that you can't walk between them. That lawyer and the judge probably never see each other. What is a problem is that the child remained in Texas and you moved to Florida. It is harder to have contact with a child when you live hundreds of miles away from the child. Be realistic as to what you want to do and what you can afford. Consider your life circumstances and the consequences of the choices you made rather than making assumptions about the Court.
