Out of the loop in a Adoption Case
My Ex Father inlaw and his wife wanted to adopt my son. my ex and son live with them. I could not pay for the full child support, or the inserince. so the father in law ask for me to give my right up, so that thay could adopt him, and put him on there insurence. I never recived Or was served papers to sign. I'll called there Lawer, and she sayed everthing in the papers That i recived (trying to locate me) was Ture, but I told here that the info in them was incorrect. She then told me that thay put an add in the Gillette news paper ( I live in 29palms CA) she then told me that The Adoption was already done in May 15. Maybe you should had tryed something earler. I tryed but know one would take my call. I am going on that the info that was stated in the paper work that I recived was false and that was the same info that they used in court. So I would like to know should Icallthe judgeandlet him know that this was based onfalse info. The thing is that i feel that they went behing my back and did this on saying that they couldnt locate me. (I recived the fourms at my HOME ADDRESS saying thay tryed looking for me but could not) so is there anything I can do
Thanks for your time

Re: Out of the loop in a Adoption Case
There may be a way to set aside the judgment or adoption decree, but it would take more than a phone call to the judge. A few hours attorney time to research the issue may cost $ 1K and then to do the motion would be more.
