QUESTIONS

  • I filed for emergency custody of my daughter. It was granted. We returned to court within the 10 days and the judge kept it in place for the time being and scheduled a meditation a few months out. I no longer feel the emergency custody is necessary. Can I cancel it without having to go through the meditation process?
