Hello friends and family . I am doing this to raise funds for my ongoing court fees and an emergency situation that the judge put on me this past week . During this last court session , there was what is called a GAL , guardian ad litem forced upon my case , she was appointed for my Daughter . As most of you know , I have been in this court situation on and off for years now , but just this past July , there was all new sad and very bad things that were happening to my daughter , abuse by her mother , police involved , just really bad stuff . I was contacted by my Ex’s family members telling me I needed to get out to the Plainfield police station because of what was happening . I did so of course , and made sure my daughter was safe , but I then got together with her family and was filled in with so many of the details and I then immediately looked and hired a new attorney who specializes in family law and we went to work for me to get my daughter to finally be in my life fully . I had to pay my attorney a large retainer , and then I agreed to make monthly payments for all his fees which is very hard for me just to be able to pay that , so court started and we have already had 4 court dates and his fees have added up very fast , my retainer is long gone , and I owe him more already . So in this court battle , a major issue that was unexpected , is Jennifer’s ex husband , he came from nowhere and is trying to claim he adopted my child , which never happened ,  and Jennifer continues to want to fight me for custody , but my attorney says there is no way I can loose , none . But we need to get to the discovery phase of court and trial , so I can show the mountain of evidence I have proving that Jennifer never allowed me my visitation rights , and proof I was begging and trying always to see my daughter , but her and her ex husband were lying to my child as if I did not exist . The amount of evidence I have is overwhelming  , the guardian will see and hear everything , but the whole problem is that the judge seems to have made this all about money , she will not allow any forward movement in this case until I pay my half of the GAL fees to start her process . Plus she has added another $350 on top of the $1,500 . So the judge left everything holding on me , and said that if I do not pay my balance in full to the GAL within 7 days , that she is holding me in contempt of court . I can basically be put into jail , and I begged to be able to make small payments , I told them I was absolutely willing to make payments , but the judge said If I really care , then I will do what needs to be done . My attorney was begging and pleading to the judge that I am on disability , and only make a small amount of money currently working doing cooking for homeless and helping people in need . I am still living with my health issues and am in horrible chronic pain . But the judge just did not care , they want that guardian to be paid and make money off of this case . There is so much more to all of this disgusting situation , but I am fighting , and I know some of you have already helped out in the past , and it was greatly appreciated , but everything kicked in to high gear in July , and I just am not giving up now . My daughter really needs me , and if anyone wants to know more details , you can call me or just ask . My attorney does feel that this guardian will be a help to my case , she has a file on Jennifer going and knows about abuse that had happened not only to my daughter , but to Jen’s other 2 kids . There are detailed files opened now and cases being built . It is just really too much , just sad . I have gone through so much pain and suffering , but I want my daughter in my life fully . God is healing me and I know all of my strength will be restored so I can have many happy years ahead with my daughter . Any help is greatly appreciated . I want to put on a dinner , fundraiser maybe in January . This would be my way to show my appreciation to all who have helped me with donations . But since this judge is treating me this way and threatening to hold me in contempt if I do not pay in full within 7 days , I need to ask for help from everyone now . And it is Thursday , so I will only have until Monday morning to make the payment . Just 3 full days to get all the help I can . It breaks my heart to have to ask for help with this , really , this is so hard on me . But my child needs me and I will do whatever it takes , I won’t give up , especially now , I can feel this will all finally end soon and justice served . God is with me . Thank you and Blessings .
