My niece recently passed away unexpectedly. She and her 2 sons ( ages 9 and 4) have lived with me for the past 8 years. Her boys are half brothers. The 9 year old was taken out of state to live with his Father that he hardly knows. He wants to come home to live with us and his brother. My question is at what age will the court take into consideration what his wishes and preferences are?
I realize that we don't have much of a case for custody now. So, I don't want to pursue it just yet because I'm afraid we will lose and then his father won't let us see him.
We would appreciate any and all advice/help.
Thank you,
