Then why did the judge cancel court hearing and this is over if they made that judgement
The court document indicates that the judge has granted the Motion to Intervene, but the final decision on the case will be made during the final hearing. The cancellation of a hearing could be due to various reasons, including scheduling conflicts, settlement outside court, or other administrative reasons. Can you specify your location? This might help me provide more tailored information.

Would I have to be notified if a continuance was filed

So Christina does not have custody of Heidi
The court document shared indicates that Christina Ciocca has been granted the Motion to Intervene in the custody case of H.C. However, it doesn't state she has been granted custody. Does Christina Ciocca seek custody for the minor H.C.?
So she does?
The document only states that Christina Ciocca is allowed to participate in the case. It doesn't mention she has been granted custody. For a final custody decision, the court will typically review the best interests of the child in a final hearing.
She has seeked custody
If Christina Ciocca is seeking custody, a judge will consider factors like the child's best interest, each parent's living situation, and their relationship with the child. A final decision will be announced at the final hearing. Are there any other queries you have on this matter?
But the court has canceled this matter
If the court has cancelled the matter, it could mean the case is resolved or postponed. You should receive a notice about this. If not, it's best to contact the court clerk or your attorney for clarification. Do you have any other concerns?
Weird
I understand your confusion. Legal matters can often be complex. Is there a specific part of the situation you're finding strange or unclear? This might help me provide more tailored information.
Wouldn’t I be notified as a person of interest
As a person of interest in a case, you're generally entitled to be notified about significant case events, like the cancellation of a hearing. However, the specifics can vary. Are you officially listed as a party in the case?
Ok
To better assist you, it would be helpful to know if you're officially listed as a party in the case. Can you confirm this?
Yes
If you're listed as a party in the case, you should receive notifications about major changes. If you haven't, it might be a procedural error. Contact the court clerk or your attorney to clarify. Do you have any other queries?
I did indeed not nor did Christina
If neither you nor Christina were notified about the cancellation of the hearing, it could be due to a procedural error. It's best to reach out to the court clerk or your legal counsel for clarification. Is there anything else you would like to know about this situation?

Why would inform child services about this matter if it’s not finalized
Child Services may be informed about ongoing custody cases to ensure the child's safety and best interests are prioritized. This is common, especially if there are concerns about the child's wellbeing. It's always about protecting the child.
Strange
I understand your feelings. Legal procedures can be complex and sometimes confusing. Is there a specific part of the process you're finding strange or do you have any other questions about this matter?
This happened a week ago btw
I understand. Are there any recent developments or changes in the situation that you'd like to discuss or seek information about?
No it’s closed
If the case is closed, it indicates that a final decision has been made. You should receive a final order detailing the outcome. Have you received such a document?
This is all that was sent
If this is the only document you received, it seems there's a missing final order detailing the case's outcome. I'd recommend contacting the court clerk or your legal counsel for the final order or any updates. Is there anything else you're curious about
This matter came on for a motion hearing via Zoom on the 9th day of April, *, before Magistrate Judy Jackson-Winston, to whom this matter was referred by the Honorable Tonya R.

Present were the following: Plaintiff, pro se; Defendant, pro se; Third-Party Intervenor, Christina Ciocca (paternal aunt), pro se.

After due consideration, pursuant to Civ.R. *(B)(*) and for good cause shown, the Motion to Intervene is in the best interest of the minor child and should be GRANTED. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that Christina Ciocca's Motion to Intervene in Custody of the Minor [H.C.] (No. *) is GRANTED. Christina Ciocca shall be added as a third party in this matter. Costs passed to final hearing. IT IS SO ORDERE
This document states that Christina Ciocca's Motion to Intervene in the custody case of the minor child H.C. has been granted. This means she's been approved to participate in the case. The final decision on custody will be made at the final hearing. If you say the case is closed, you should have received a final judgment. Did you receive a final order document?
No one did
If no one received a final order, it may be a procedural oversight. I recommend contacting the court clerk or your legal counsel to request this document. Is there anything else you need assistance with?
No and it’s been a week and nothings been added called the court they said it’s inactive
If the court stated the case is "inactive," it may mean there are no upcoming scheduled events. However, it's unusual not to receive a final order. It's best to consult your attorney for clarification. Do you have an attorney representing you in this matter?
We’re pro Sean’s same with Christina
If you and Christina are representing yourselves (pro se), I recommend contacting the court clerk again for clarification on the case status and ask about the final order. It's important to have a clear understanding of the case outcome. Are there any other questions you have?
