i have a handicap sister who lives with me. nobody has ever gone to court over who is in charge of her. she has lived with me for seven years now. now i have this older crazy sister. she has filed to be her guardianship and if not she wants to control her check. so we go to chansore court. the judge says she has to get a check up to see if she is compatient and my crazy sister can call her once a week. my handicap sister is real upset and has told the guarding of litem. my handicap sister does not want to talk or see her. my older sister was abusive to my handicap sister. of course she denies it. so i am going to hire a lawyer next week. but my handicap sister wants to go and stay with our brother in fl becouse she says she is sick when she has to talk to her. if she leaves what kind of trouble will she be in. and will they take her s.s. check. i fell like i am the one abusing her making her do these phone calls. thank you for the help .
Can you tell the Judge that the thoughts of the mean sister scared her so bad you had to send her to another state. Maybe have her write a letter for the Judge about her feelings or make a video telling the Judge everything she can think of that upsets her about the sister and have your brother write a letter too.
Sounds like you are going to need to possibly get an attorney on your side. Your "doctor" sister seems to be good at "doctoring" the situation. She also seems to have many resources. If your sister in Florida signs papers or stated that the sister gave her pills...especially without a prescription...that could look bad on the doctor...but then proving it might be difficult. I'd say that you will need to inform the court that the sister has relocated to another state, and that she is outside of their jursidiction. She did this of her own free will, and you did not do it as no one has authority over her. The sister in Florida might need to have an attorney represent her as a free citizen of Florida against having judgements from where ever the "bad" sister manages to work the system.
You might find yourself being in trouble with the courts if they think you are at all trying to not follow their rulings or are in any way responsible for the relocation. The handicapped sister does need to communicate that she wishes to have no contact with the "bad" sister because of past experiences.
we live in tn bad sister and me. i will give the judge there number down there. she says she does not want to come back to live until bad sister is dead. she is tired of it. my brother came this way so i had nothing to do with it. we just want her to stay free and happy to have choices and be able to do what she wants. you guys have helped alot thank you very much
well here is the update. i wrote the letter to the judge. i told him how my bad sister was doing to my handicap sister. and we told the guard of litem. and nothing was done. i told the judge everything. then i came home and left them all a message. that i wrote the letter to the judge. and my brother who is a retired police officer had to come to tn to protect my handicap sister becouse no one listen to her. and boy are they mad. they wanted to know if i had a copy of the letter. and was yelling and screaming at me. but nobody asked where handicap sister is. i wonder why. well i will give you an update as it goes along and again thank you very much she is safe and happy
You still shouldn't assume your sister in Florida is in the clear. The court could potentially get involved and somehow order her return to TN... Possibly saying she left without state authority (I don't know??) But I've got a feeling it aint over and that she really needs to get advice from Florida courts... I'm not sure who you mean was yelling at you? The bad sister or the court people? Also, did you keep a copy of the letter you sent the judge?
If your sister had the guardian ad litem appointed by the court, it may be that person has the power to say if the sister can leave the state or not... you don't want to end up facing kidnapping charges or something... or have your sister charged with something... courts can come up with all sorts of legal stuff... your sister in FL really needs an advocate who knows the laws.
i did not keep a copy of the letter and my bad sister would yell at her on the phone. we told everyone no one listened. she had no guardian they were not sure she needed one. they wanted her to take a test to see. my brother says they have no juradiction on her. becouse no one has ever been her guardian. we will get a lawyer in fla and fight it if we have to. my bad sister was horrible to my brother down there so he knows what we say is true. that is why he came right up to get her. i relize it is not over. but he can help so much more than i ever could
oh the guard of litem yelled at me becouse i did not stop her from leaving. i told her she did not stop my bad sister from bulling my handicap sister. so why should i stop it. she said my sister was her client. i said she is my sister. and i told the judge in a letter and he could call them. and she got real mad and said i would never see my sister again. so i hung up
I think it might be best if your brother looks for legal advice in Florida they might be more cooperative. Your sister needs to keep insisting on what she wants.
That is a pretty strong statement from her. Wonder what the heck she meant? Keep us posted. Sure sounds like she is going to try something... keep your brother informed... that she may try to come after him for helping her "client" leave the state... could be some trouble if she was court appointed...Seems like they might try to have you and your brother removed from the issue...??
