THE TRIAL ~ My Mother Sued My Daughter for Adopting Foster Kids! (Trial date; 3-24-2017)

In case you never saw/heard the original story, WATCH THIS:

March 24, 2017

Ears pounding… 1am: I can literally hear the blood pulsing through my ears, in my head; it hurts.  I’m so tired… today was such a horrible day.

We got to the Courtroom at 8:45am; Trial was scheduled to start at 9am, but it didn’t end up starting until 10:  We went up to the table, and spread out our notes, and immediately my mother objected to me being at the table to help Kasey.  The judge told Kasey she could either have me there, or call me as a witness, but not both; I knew I needed to testify… unfortunately, I did not have the presence of mind on the stand to say all of the things I wanted to say, when the time finally came, though I thought I did pretty well.

My mother than told her attorney’s to invoke some rule that prohibits witnesses from being in the Courtroom during the trial, except when they testified, so I was not only removed from the table next to my daughter, we were all forced to wait out in the hall, and my daughter had to face my mother and her team of attorney’s all alone.  She was so scared, and not as prepared as we thought.

My step-dad wouldn’t even look at any of us… Kasey said he said with his head hung, elbows on his knees, the entire time (when I saw him, he was looking at the wall).  He would not look up at me, even as I passed by them on my way to the witness stand; sad.  It was obvious, HE did not want to be there – but my mother controls everybody, including him.

Kasey was so terrified; and so lost… she forgot half of her evidence, and the other half, they objected to and the judge refused to look at.  The fact that she has made the entire mortgage payment for the past two years did not matter, the fact that my mother willingly made her an equal owner of the home, did not matter; the fact that my mother is just a controlling, manipulative, vindictive bitch DID NOT MATTER EITHER.  Apparently, Kasey was told that she was not allowed to bring my mother’s character into question!

I’m sure, it is because we didn’t file any claim against her; I tried to get Kasey to let me Counterclaim immediately when she was served with that original Petition, but she was afraid of pissing my mother off any further, so she asked me not to.  So we just Answered.  Big Mistake.

A Counterclaim would have allowed the admittance of all of that evidence because our claim would have been based on my mother’s awful character and past behavior.  See, she makes a HABIT of suing people, having been a lawyer, herself, in years past… and loves writing hateful, horrible, threatening and demeaning letters to people or about people, to other people.  If we had made this claim in the beginning, he would have had to listen to the evidence regarding that claim at the trial.

The Judge at the Trial would not even recognize the importance of the ELEVEN-PAGE LETTER my mother previously wrote to the Judge on the foster kid’s case, Judge Mayfield, where she admitted to emotionally abusing one of the foster children by telling them they were going to be sleeping in the bathtub until CPS came back to get them; he didn’t even seem to care.  How is that?  My mother did her damnedest to get those kids taken away and put back into the foster care system!  How awful is that?

He wouldn’t listen to anything regarding horrible things she has done in the past, nor anything regarding all the work we put in on the Duncanville home, the money from which went to buy the mobile home my daughter has been living in.

Since I was not privy to anything but my own testimony, I can’t give much more detail right now; but I will be ordering a transcript of the Trial to find out what all transpired.  All I know is, after we were told we could come in to listen to the ruling, that Judge blew my mind!  He commended her for taking the steps to adopt the children, saying foster parenting is a commendable “occupation” and it’s a wonderful thing that she did.

Then he simply told my daughter, that he did not believe her side of the story; he believed my mother.  She won.  They get the house back; my daughter has to move her family.

Later that night, I sent my mother a text (not even sure she would get it) telling her she is a horrible person and I don't know how she lives with herself.  To my surprise, she replied:  "If you weren't such an ugly, mouthy bitch, Kasey would have a home."  So there it is... my mother's admission that she took my daughter's home away to SPITE me!  Nice, huh?

*I will post more when I obtain the Trial transcript.  STAY TUNED!
