What are the chances of winning grandparents visitation rights. Should we get a lawyer???
We live in California.
My older sister is crazy, and she is not allowing my mother (the Childrens Grandmother) see the children anymore. In complete honesty my mother is the most stable thing the children have. If my mother takes her to court for visitation rights, what are the chances of her getting visitation rights?
Here are some facts:
My sister is unmarried
My sister has three children from two different people. The father of the youngest child, was murdered 5 years ago and the father of the other two children has never been active in the children’s lives.
My sister has a record. She does not work. She has had CPS called on her numerous times. She has a warrant out for her arrest. Has a history of drug abuse.
Her live-in boyfriend (who also does not work) has a prison record and has 4 children, three of which he does not see.
They live from place to place to place.
All three of the children are emotionally attached to my Mother (their grandmother)
My mother (their grandmother) has a clean record, outstanding citizen. She is wonderful both on paper and in life.
You might be wondering why my crazy sister won’t allow my Mother to see the children anymore.
In a Nut Shell- My Mother was enabling my older sister for 9 years for the sake of the children. She even bought her a house. My sister failed to pay the mortgage which was extremely discounted. My mother eventually had to kick her out because my sister just would not pay any rent and neither her or her boyfriend would work, (instead they would hot box the children, smoking weed all day). She owes my Mom over twenty grand, but we have come to terms with the fact that my mother will never see it, she just wants to see the kids.)
