SAN ANGELO, Texas -- Now that the search for children living at a remote polygamous ranch near here is over, the legal issues begin. The state of Texas has taken temporary legal custody of 416 children in order to protect them, child welfare officials say.
A Maryland court has sent a child support case against an NBA star to his home state of Texas while keeping a custody case concerning the same child in Maryland. Allison M.

Bosh claims that he has paid, but that Mathis has not cashed his checks.

Family and Parental Rights The Court has long recognized the importance of family and the robust nature of parental rights.2 The Court explained in Meyer v. Nebraska that the Constitution protects the right of the individual to marry, establish a home and bring up children,3 and in Prince v. Massachusetts that the custody, care and nurture of the child reside first in the parents. At issue in Rivera v. Minnich was the standard of proof required to establish paternity.11 Pennsylvania had imposed a preponderance of the evidence standard in paternity cases.12 The law was challenged on the ground that a clear and convincing standard should instead have been used.13 The Court rejected the challenge, denying an equivalence between the State's imposition of the legal obligations accompanyi...
ST. GEORGE -- Attorneys for jailed FLDS leader Warren Jeffs will be in court Thursday seeking a new trial for the 52-year-old spiritual leader of a polygamist sect now embroiled in a massive child custody case in Texas.

Splitting the Bosh baby case in two A Maryland court has sent a child support case against an NBA star to his home state of Texas while keeping a custody case concerning the same child in Maryland. Allison M. Mathis claims that her ex-boyfriend, Toronto Raptors power forward Chris Bosh, has not been supporting their 5-month-old daughter. Bosh claims that he has paid, but that Mathis has not cashed his checks. Mathis originally filed her case in Texas, where she and Bosh lived in the off-season until their breakup last August; but in January, she refiled in Maryland, where she moved before their daughter was born. Retired Montgomery County Circuit Court Judge James L. Ryan dismissed Mathis' Maryland support claim for lack of personal jurisdiction -- that is, Ryan found Bosh didn't have s...
The mother of a 14-year-old girl at the center of a custody fight with Texas child welfare authorities is criticizing a report about the girl. In a statement Wednesday, lawyers for Barbara Jessop denied that she or anyone acting on her behalf leaked a copy of the Court Appointed Special Advocates report to several Texas newspapers. The Deseret News also obtained a copy of the report, which described 36 text messages sent to the girl that included telling her to "please stay angry," "crying will get you what you want," and "CPS needs to see that you are miserable there." The report says the cell phone was smuggled to her by her mother.

SAN ANGELO, Texas -- Revelations that the March 29 phone call that sparked a raid on a west Texas polygamist compound may be a hoax have led prosecutors to doubt the reason for the original search-and-arrest warrant that granted authorities access to the Yearning for Zion Ranch. Arrests still could be made in the case, said first assistant 51st District attorney Allison Palmer. The raid, based on the warrant, led to the removal of 437 children from the Fundamentalist LDS Church ranch, the largest child custody action in Texas history.
