QUESTION: The father of my daughter has not done visitation time with her or cares about her, my daughter has gone through a lot, two open heart surgeries, tonsillectomy and and two set of ear tubes. The father has not contacted her at all in five years, and when he does he only calls to argue, and cause problems.
MY RESPONSE: It sounds like you already have "de facto" custody of your daughter. What would you be trying to accomplish by seeking or receiving her full "legal" custody? You could do that, depending on whether or not you were married to her father, by filing a divorce or paternity case, and filing and proceeding with an Order to Show Cause in that case for sole physical and legal custody.
