7) By abandoning the child.

This is the story of how my beautiful Grand Daughter, Catrina was placed in a potentially HAZZARDOUS situation (a dank, windowless bedroom in a cellar) by the Court appointed Guardian. This hazzardous living arrangement was approved by C.P.S. & IGNORED by the Law Guardian as well as the presiding Judge who denied me custody/visitation. Now this sameJudge is going to allow the person who displayed poor Judgement & placed her in that dank, windowless cellar bedroom for a year and a half to adopt her instead of placing her with me, her Maternal Grand Mother! Outrageous!!!! My family has been shattered & victimized by the system.

Questionable (& possibly illegal) practices on the part of Suffolk County Child Protective Services, the Law Guardian & the presiding Judge? Check out my site & you Decide!

Building Vacates
Is Your Home In Danger of Being Vacated?
A ResidenceVacate-Awareness Guide
When we think of disasters in the city that may impact our lives, what usually comes to mind are images of storm- or fire-damaged homes. However, of the almost 3,000 disasters to which the American Red Cross in Greater New York responds to each year, more than 20% are to assist at the scene of a vacate order, during which residents are legally removed from their homes by court order.
A building is ordered to be vacated when a city agency has determined that the residence is unfit or unsafe to inhabit. There are many situations in which this can occur: illegally converted dwellings, fire-code violations, commercial spaces used as residences and structural instability, to name a few. These vacate orders, although implemented to ensure the safety and well-being of the building’s occupants, have the unfortunate consequence of leaving the residents homeless, many times with very little or no advance notice.
In the interest of making you aware of some of the situations that would warrant a vacate order, and therefore, help you avoid the hardship resulting from a sudden loss of your home, please see the information outlined below:

1. Is your bedroom or apartment in a cellar or basement?
If it is, there is a chance that you might be living in an “illegal conversion.” An illegal conversion is one or more additional dwelling units within a home that were created without first receiving the approval of the NYC Department of Buildings. Such conversions often involve the alteration or modification of an existing one- or two-family home by the addition of an apartment or bedroom in the basement or cellar. Illegal conversions are frequently created in violation of existing fire and building codes and constitute a significant danger to tenants of such apartments and to other individuals living in the buildings.
Owners with illegally converted basements and cellars may face civil and criminal penalties. ***Occupants of illegal basement and cellar apartments face potential dangers such as carbon monoxide poisoning, inadequate light and ventilation, and inadequate egress in the event of a fire or other emergency.Basements are defined by New York City law as spaces that are partly below curb level but have at least one-half of their height above the curb level. Basements in private dwellings can be rented if the space meets these conditions:

A ceiling height of at least seven feet
Walls that are damp- and water-proofed (if subsoil conditions require it)

Residence by only one family, with no additional boarders

Every room must have at least one window
The bottom of the yard or (other open space) must be at least six inches below the sill of the room’s window.

Cellars are defined by New York City law as enclosed spaces having more than one-half of their height below curb level. Cellars in private dwellings can never be lawfully rented or occupied. They can, however, be used, but not for the purposes of sleeping, eating, or as primary cooking facilities (a secondary kitchen is allowed if approved by the Department of Buildings).

2. Does your residence have only one escape route?All residences in New York City are required to have two means of egress, or exit. In the event of fire or other emergency, residents must have access to another means of leaving the building, should the primary exit become blocked.
This means that, in addition to the door through which you normally enter and exit, there must be at least one other way in which you could easily and reasonably exit your building in an emergency. This can be simply a window of adequate size if the residence is less than two stories. For larger apartment buildings, this usually requires a well-maintained fire escape outside of that window, or an additional stairway that you can access.
These are only a few guidelines designed to give you a general idea of risk situations that may exist in your home. There are many exceptions and many other considerations to take into account. For example, even if you have a fire escape, it may be cluttered, or have an air-conditioning unit on it, in which case you would still be in violation of city codes.
Unfortunately, forced building vacates are one of the most common and disruptive emergencies that affect our city on a daily basis.
As with any emergency, proper planning and foresight can reduce your risk of harm.

I want & have been DENIED CUSTODY of
my Grand Daughter!!!!

Now I ask you.........................what JACKASS would allow an individual who placed a toddler in a cellar (for well over a year until I put a stop to it) to not only retain custody but possibly adopt this child???? Better yet...............what JACKASS would throw the TRUTH of this dangerous issue aside not only by covering it up (to cover everyones behinds) but by NOT addressing it in open Court or even holding guilty parties responsible????? Would you believe it if I told you this person was a highly respected,
Suffolk County Family Court Judge?

Find out the TRUTH by listening to
the actual conversations

In Court they talk about the "best interests" of the child........
well lets see....................

I am the Maternal Grandmother & I love my Grand Daughter very much!!!! I happen to be a married, stay at home homeowner residing in Commack, N.Y. where the child would be afforded an EXCELLENT education & NOT warehoused in daycare!!!
Commack happens to be a highly rated, "Blue Ribbon" school district as well as an EXCELLENT neighborhood!!
My Husband earns a very good living.

The Custodial Guardian is a unmarried, non homeowner residing in Ridgewood Queens (NOT a "Blue Ribbon" school district by any stretch of the imagination) with her same sex partner. She currently warehouses my Grand Daughter in Daycare because she has to work constantly & has no time to properly care for my Grand Daughter! Lets not forget this woman housed her in a cellar until a VACATE ORDER was issued!! The Custodial Guardian displayed very, very POOR/Unsafe/unhealthy judgement in regard to the safety & care of my Grand Daughter.

Since the enforcement of the "Vacate Order" my Grandaughter occupied a makeshift Bedroom in the Foyer/Main Entry to the home which my daughter & I raised an issue about (refer to "the conversation files"). Since those conversations, it has been rumored my Grand Daughter has been moved within that home yet again.

After keeping a child in a cellar for over a year this woman shouldn't have ANY child yet certain "responsible parties" deemed it fit & safe not only for my Grand Daughter to occupy the Cellar of this individuals home in the first place but for my Grand Daughter to be left in the hands of this same individual instead of turning over custody to me!!!!!!

Tell me, is it just me or is there something dreadfully
wrong with this picture???

It is crystalline that I can lovingly, emotionally, educationally, financially, morally & ethically provide for my Grandaughter much better then the Custodial Guardian can! A blind man in a blizzard can see it would be in my Grand Daughter's "best interest" to reside with me yet she is still in the care of someone who displayed poor, unsafe judgement!!!
