Complete and utter trash. Nothing about this court house is in the realm of sanity. Being a dad has become a crime an they enforce with upright stupidity

I Have been twice to the Bronx Family Court and both times I had a satisfactory experience. First with the police at the entrance of the facility, very helpful and respectful. the staff were informative, helpful and very courteous. Visits lasted less than an hour each. After waiting 3 months to see a Judge I was informed that I should have submitted my petition in Manhattan. Back to square one.

Questions & Answers

Can you go family court take my son father off his birth certificate

Star Boss | Sep 22, 2020
Dee Block | Sep 22, 2021

Yes of course BUT the father would also have to agree that he wants to be removed. Unless he is deceased of course then I believe you don’t need consent.

ACS placed my grandchild with me. I now have physical custody. Can I go to court to file for custody?

Margarita Soto | Sep 23, 2018
Classy Lady | Sep 23, 2018

I think so because u don't have sole custody but it depends on why they gave you physical custody cuz the parent can always request that they get their child back unless they relinquish their rights to you

Carizma Howell | May 25, 2022
K L Johnson | May 25, 2022

You would have to get a court ordered test done by him. This is a complicated one, because I'm not sure he has the right to custody if he isn't the biological father.

How can I get a court order for my child passport ??

Faith Chantel | Sep 22, 2021
Bored Kiddo | Sep 22, 2021

If the father is on the birth certificate they usually need both parents who are on that Birth certificate to sign off. Unfortunately you must have sole custody or be able to show valid pressing documentation on why you are unable to have the father agree/cooperate on signing off on your child's passport application. You can start with a petition for sole custody and gather up all the docs and evidence you have.

Phyllis Jardine | Sep 22, 2021

Hi....yes , and no. Also, you do not have to take any steps the child is on their own. A responsible parent with help their child go to college. Don't worry your child is cover with Pell, and tap for college free grants.

Kitty Acosta | Sep 23, 2019

The home state of where your son lives has jurisdiction.. that is where he has been living the past 6 months.. u cannot vchange that.. child support has absolutely nothing to do w visitation.. keep all your visits w him and file for visitation.. he will get his own lawyer and if he is comfortable visiting w u, then they will do a home visit in nj and it can only b changed if it is deemed a safe place for a child.. never give up on him.. and u will get your visits scheduled in due time..at this point u just have to keep proving yourself

SHAE Love | Sep 23, 2019

You must look at the order and see if it says temporary. U should file a downward modification if it says final order of support. U must pay something rather than nothing. You should get a job to hand in a paystub so that they can take something from that, that way u won't be in violation.

My grandbaby is placed with me thru the courts. But now her father is in jail. How do I go about filing for custody since he's in jail.

You must come in and file a petition for custody.. once u see a judge, he will give u a summons for personal service which u must serve on mom and dad.. and then they will do a COI which is a court ordered investigation of your home to ensure the childs safety.. after that, it's just a matter of time if all checks out well.. good luck

File a visitation petition. If you already have a visitation order from family court take it to precinct where child lives and ask them to enforce it.

Looks better to whom? And for what purpose? Are you trying for custody? They are usually separate hearings

To get a DNA test can I just walk in or set a appointment ?

Yes, If you want a dna test for a child you may have in common with another..... Then you'll need to file a paternity petition in the help center on the first floor. You'll need to serve the other party with a summons to come to court on the court date you'll be given... Or otherwise make sure he or she shows up.

I have visitation with my son over other weekend. I pick him up after school on Friday and return him Sunday at 6:30. Lately his mother refuses to pack any extra cloths in his bag. Is his mother supposed to pack clothes for the weekend visit?

You should have clothes in your house for your child paying child support does not mean you don't buy clothes and leave them in your house and put back the same clothes you pick the child up in and send them home the judge will also tell you that.

I am 29 years old, as a child I never knew my father but my mother who lived in the Bronx, had my father on child support. Would I be able to get information on him from the court records although my father is not listed on my birth certificate?

I say try your mother first. I'm sure he has other family. Google his name. Get on social media, etc. Easier quicker.

I want to make an order of protection for my daughter's father, how should I do it?

Elizabeth Salcedo | Sep 23, 2018
Alexis Vandespool | Sep 23, 2018

You need a police report first, then you need to see a judge who will then either grant a temporary order of protect until a further date where both of you appear in court. On the date you both appear in court the judge will either end the OOP or extend it

Ran Dee | Sep 23, 2018

Depends. You're not giving much detail, but if he has visitations, he can challenge any custody changes, you might try to establish. He is the father, at the end of the day.

It's a possibility but it takes some time work and effort on the other end. Also if the grandparents are willing to give them up it is easier as well. You just have to go thru the courts the right way
