ok they did help me when I was in the homeless shelter. this is when Lewis took Jace for a visit and never brought him back to me
Hello Elizabeth, I'm glad to hear Illinois Legal Aid Online was of help. If Lewis took Jace and didn't return him as agreed, it's considered a violation of custody agreement. You can report this to your local authorities or family court.
hre would not even let me speak to him
Hello Elizabeth, I understand this is a difficult situation. If communication is impossible, consider reaching out to Family Court Services in your area. They can assist with mediation or enforce the agreement. Always document these incidents for future reference.

Hello Elizabeth, I'm sorry to hear about your situation.
- Firstly, you can file a motion to set aside the restraining order due to not receiving a summons.
- Secondly, you may also consider reporting the issue to the court clerk who handles your case.
- Finally, try to gather evidence showing you didn't receive the summons.

ok ty for you help. my family knows they asked for visits also
Hello Elizabeth, that's good. Family visitation can be beneficial for your son. Does your family also have a legal agreement for visitation, or do they rely on the goodwill of your ex-husband?
thanks so much for your help
You're welcome, Elizabeth. Feel free to reach out if you have more questions or need further assistance. Remember, always document everything, and don't hesitate to seek help from legal aid organizations.
goodwilll of husband but he never let them since *
I understand, Elizabeth. It seems your ex-husband is not cooperative. Has your family considered requesting a formal visitation order from the court to ensure their rights to see your son?
they don't want to do that court is * hours away and can't afford a trip and hotel. that is my trouble as well
Hello Elizabeth, I understand the inconvenience. In Indiana, you can request for a "telephonic court appearance". This allows you to attend court proceedings via a phone call, saving you the trouble of travel and accommodation expenses.
I will remember that
That's great, Elizabeth. Telephonic court appearance can be very helpful in your case. If you need further assistance or have more questions, feel free to ask.
I will
That's good to hear, Elizabeth. Remember, you have rights and there are resources available to help you. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need further assistance. Stay strong and take care.
thankyou. God Bless you!
You're welcome, Elizabeth. Remember to stay strong and know your rights. If you ever need further assistance, don't hesitate to reach out. May God bless you too. Do you need help with anything else at the moment?
