So I'm doing a custody hearing with my sister. This is our third appearance. She does not want to take temporary custody of my daughter. I'm trying to get into detox and treatment so I can get custody of my daughter back. If I do that before my court dates, will they postpone it so that way? I have a better chance of getting her once I get out of treatment or. Will it be better if I wait for the courts to deny me custody put her summer temporary and then court order me to do treatment or detox? I just want to avoid my daughter going into anybody's care? That's a stranger so my baby's concern is if I get into these Hawks today and my court days on the tenth, will they? Push it out until I get out of treatment.
