What is everyone's legal background here? I'm just curious. I have my own legal question that I plan to ask my attorney and my professors tomorrow who are attorneys but I'm impatient. Long story short my mother passed in May and she has 3 children. Myself, my oldest brother, and a younger brother. Now, when my mother passed my little brother who is 14 was in boys school. My older brother and I sought legal counsel to get co-guardianship and co-ownership over the estate. Okay, another long story short. My older brother was convicted of child exploitation for having sex with a 16 year old when he was 24 and they took consensual pictures together blah blah it was all bogus and she's now a stripper. Anyway, the boys school released my brother to his "alleged" father who is on parole and has so many drug and DUI charges he can never have a drivers license again. So, my question is, can my older brother get guardianship? Even if he is a sex offender? I just don't understand I guess. They released him to his father when I am no solely seeking guardianship. And if he can't get guardianship will they give his "alleged" father (never put on birth certificate or proven DNA)? He also lives on his "friends" couch and has no job. He said he spoke with the judge and the judge said he knows how busy I am and I'm never home so I wouldn't be a good guardian. When in fact I'm never home because unlike his father I am an adult and do adult things like go to work full time and go to school full time. I'm so irate about this situation. And to top it off my brother wants to be with his worthless father because he lets him do whatever and has no rules and he knows that's not how it will be here. Sorry so long, it turned into a rant.

... So, my question is, can my older brother get guardianship? ... They released him to his father when I am no solely seeking guardianship. ...

He can give it a shot. But parents are preferred over other relatives.

The school released the brother to the man they believed is his father? I expect your brother's school enrollment forms showed the man as the father. Perhaps they should have asked to see a BC, but they didn't. So what's done is done.


... He said he spoke with the judge and the judge said he knows how busy I am and I'm never home so I wouldn't be a good guardian. ...

I doubt this. Judges are not allowed to talk to people about cases except during hearings and, I assume you were not notified of a hearing.
