NOTICE OF EFFECT OF
TERMINATION JUDGMENT
Georgia law provides that
you can permanently lose your
rights as a parent. A petition
to terminate parental rights has
been filed requesting the court to
terminate your parental rights to
your children. A court hearing of
your case has been scheduled
for the 25th day July, 2017 at
9:00 a.m., at the Juvenile Court
of Jackson County, Courtroom
5, 5000 Jackson Parkway, Jef
ferson, Georgia 30549.
If you fail to appear, the court
can terminate your parental
rights in your absence.
If the court at the trial finds that
the facts set out in the petition
to terminate parental rights are
true and that termination of your
rights will serve the best interests
of your children, the court can
enter a judgment ending your
rights to your children.
If the judgment terminates
your parental rights, you will no
longer have any rights to your
children. This means that you
will not have the right to visit,
contact, or have custody of your
children or make any decisions
affecting your child or your chil
dren’s earnings or property. Your
children will be legally freed to be
adopted by someone else.
The putative/biological father
is hereby placed on notice that
pursuant to O.C.G.A. Section
15-11-283 he may lose all rights
to the above named child and will
not be allowed to object to the
termination of his rights to such
children unless, within 30 days
of receipt of notice, you files a
petition to legitimate the child as
well as a notice of the filing of
the petition to legitimate with the
court in which the termination
proceeding is pending. Addition
ally, the court may enter an order
terminating all the parental rights
of a biological father, including
the right to object thereafter to
such proceedings if the putative/
biological father fails to timely
legitimate the children named
above.
Even if your parental rights
are terminated: (1) You will be
responsible for providing finan
cial support (child support pay
ments) for your children’s care
unless and until your children are
adopted; and (2) Your children
can still inherit from you unless
and until your child is adopted.
This is a very serious matter.
You should contact an attorney
immediately so that you can be
prepared for the court hearing.
You have the right to hire an
attorney and to have him or her
represent you. If you cannot
afford to hire an attorney, the
court will appoint an attorney
if the court finds that you are
an indigent person. Whether
or not you decide to hire an
attorney, you have the right to
attend the hearing of your case,
to call witnesses on your behalf,
and to question those witnesses
brought against you. If you want
a lawyer appointed to represent
you, you must let the Court or
the officer of this Court handling
this case know that you want a
lawyer immediately. If you wish
to apply for Court appointed
Counsel you should contact the
Melinda Nelson at 706-387-6386
