My little Cousin has been taken by into police custody, pending social service involvement.?

My 14 year old Cousin has been taken into custody by the police and a social worker have called me trying to get in touch beside her Mother who they now want to arrest. They will not release her to me without her Mother's authorization, which I fear she will not cooperate due to the reality that they will probably want her to come into the police station to give that authorization, so they will then be able to arrest her. My 1st cousin is the Mother and my little 2nd cousin is the one anyone held. I called the station to ask if I may come and pick up my little cousin to bring her home with me, they said they can't without her Mother's authorization. I call my Cousin at her home and told her they will not let me take her without her approval and since next, they have called me back and said if her Mother does not bestow authorization, then my little cousin will be placed in foster care. What can I do? I love this little girl and she have been like a daughter to me since she was a little one. :(
The first answerer is absolutely correct. I'd just like to join that you DON'T need a lawyer, unless you plan to fight the rest of her kin for custody. If not a soul else petitions, all you have to do is be extremely patient, surpass a back round check, show up for everything, and cooperate with all their minutia, and you will seize custody.

She's lucky to have you. Good luck.
You really want to contact an attorney in Family Law. Honestly, I think the police are using a scare tactic on you. There is no rationale to place that baby in foster care if in that are family members willing to pilfer her (bless you).

Tell that to the police! Ask them why foster care when she has FAMILY!
Or find out what foster agency she will be placed w/ and work w/ them to get her.
You can still folder emergency court paper to take guardianship over your cousin.
They are telling you straight. The state cannot give anyone else custody without any consent from the parent or a court order.

If the parent doesn't consent, the child goes into the foster care system until here is a hearing to detemine where to place her.

However, you can request the court to place her with you. Keep within close touch with the social workers, attend the hearings and make sure that CPS and the sort out know that there is family available to care for her. With luck, your cousin will be contained by foster care only a short time.
calm down nearby has to be a hearing before they can place her surrounded by foster care. They will usually try to place the child with family until that time sending them somewhere else. Find out when the hearing is scheduled and go acquire your cousin. Now if the child has been seriously abused and you didn't report it they may not give the child to you. It a moment ago depends on the situation. Combine answers 1, 2 and 6 and you will have a very good answer to your put somebody through the mill.
as of now.... you don't enjoy much option other than convincing your cousin to go come together cops and give authorization.... Your 1st cousin needs to take responsibility for her daughter, and anything her actions were to cause this to start. Unfortunately, there isn't much YOU can do, but MOM needs to get herself surrounded by gear. When and if she is arrested, she will be able to give permission to you to embezzle care of her. BTW, is there a DAD involved, or her MOM? Immediate family is other the courts choice when it comes to problems like this. Cousins, unless you are the only family relation, can't other do much. Sorry, and I wish you guys well.
