Judge transferred case to county where both parties reside, without motion from any parties involved & vacating an upcoming court date.
A motion to transfer the case a few years ago was filed & denied by the standing judge on the order. No residencies have changed since that denial.
It has now been Judge rotation year & a new judge was assigned to the case. A motion for something else was filed by the plaintiff, but not for transfer if case. It is a family case involving Plaintiff -Mother, Defendant-Father & Third Party Interveners- paternal Grandparents. Mother has filed a motion to remove third party Interveners (us) from the order in which we share visitation with The father (our son). We have a trial court date on 3/9, but got a notice from the court house yesterday stating it is transferring the file to the county in which the parties live & vacates all court dates.
Not comprehending that the judge can transfer the case to another county without request from either parties especially if a request previously has been denied.
Enlighten me! Does the new assigned county notify of a new court date on the pending petitions/motions? Does everything need to be re filed? Do we show up this week at the scheduled hearing & question the judge's judgement? All parties are pro-se.
