Hi,
My daughter has been involved with social services for over 18 months. There have been no concerns raised against me, all concerns are raised against my ex-partner. Specifically DV and Drug Use. Around 2 months ago, the LA initiated Pre-Proceedings. It was at this time, I discovered that my PR order was never stamped by the court. Since then, the LA have placed my daughter with maternal grandmother. I've been to court for an emergency hearing and obtained PR. I also requested interim Child Arrangements, but the judge said the LA still need to do work. The LA are saying that I can revoke the S20, but I don't know what implications that has. I don't know what it means for the long term. My daughter is currently at Nans with her two brothers (not mine). It's important that they have regular access to them and I would maintain that. They are also getting supervised access to Mum through Nan and again, I would maintain that. My hearing isn't until August. I don't know what the best solution is. The LA are saying speak to my solicitor. My solicitor is saying speak to the LA.
Can anybody clear things up?
Regards,
