My jurisdiction is: texas

I have a 11 month old with my bf/ex. Last Monday we broke up. He is the legal father. Tuesday while he was at work I took off with our daughter to one of my family members homes. I will not tell the father here I am or who i am with. I am scared he will file on me again.

There are standing orders stating that neither parents can remove or hide the child, but I did not want to get filed on again so I just left.

So I got a lawyer this week and we are going to answer the motion that was filled on monday. After our lawyers talk and I know he cant take the baby then I will tell him where I am and let him see her.

He is going for primary custody because I want to move back in with my parents so I can go to school. My parent live 500 miles away from us now. I would stay close but I have no job or car. So I have no choice but to move back and have my parents support me.

my questions:
I was just wandering if this makes me look bad to the court ?

Since he is the one with the job and could support the baby on his own do you think if i left to go live with my parents 500 miles away they would give him custody here?

The reason i want to move is so that i could go to school for 2 years. But I could not afford that and live here with bills.

Just as you were advised on the thread you deleted from the other law forum, you are committing felony child abduction. You will not get custody because you have deliberately hidden the child from the father, against a court order. You will NEVER get permission to move with the child as you will be in jail awaiting sentencing on the felony conviction.

I would look up the statute you are guilty of but since you are a thread deleter I won't bother. :rolleyes:
 
If you are going against a court order, you have a good chance of losing custody. You can move wherever you want however you do not have the right to move the baby. I suggest you work something out with Dad so that he will allow the move or plan on fighting it out in court. You are making a big mistake fleeing with the child if a temp. order has told you not too. It is not the fathers fault you have no way to support yourself.

She has already committed both contempt of court and felony abduction. She was warned on Monday to not do this and got pouty and deleted her thread...But one of the members saved it.
