A voice for Malichi

My name is Katrius and I am the grandmother of Malichi.  Malichi has been with his grandparents and his mother since birth. He is autistic and everyone that meets him loves him.  He is a wonderful child. We love him and his mother loves him too. His mother is our daughter. Due to some issues of concern with her, we got an emergency guardianship.  We were informed by the courts, that the father had to be told of this. The judge allowed the father to be given temporary guardianship. The father has been absent from his life for 7 years by choice. Malichi is 8 years old. Our daughter had a lawyer that was absent from the last hearing, and has appeared to be compromised by her actions. We as grandparents are concerned due to the fathers actions regarding seeking money from us.  We are seeking a voice for Malichi in court, because we do not feel his concerns have been represented.  We would like to be present in Malichi's life.  Malichi has a disability and we have never been given any money, nor want any money to continue to care for him. We feel it is a disregard for the mental health of this child to be taken from all that he has known.  The father told us (Malichis grandparents) that we can never speak nor see him again. It took 8 years to build a strong mental,emotional bond with him. We and his mother are a very critical part of Malichis development. We should be available in his life. The judge stated that In order to present specific evidence that wasn't presented before, we need legal consul. We are concerned about the future of Malichi without proper representations. We are seeking support, because this child deserves it.
