VIRGINIA Part 67

This can be complicated, and if you think this applies to you, please talk to a lawyer in both states about this if possible.  For a list of legal resources in Virginia, please see VA Finding a Lawyer.

You can also file for temporary emergency custody in Virginia, even if it is not your child’s home state if:

The child is present in Virginia AND

The child has been abandoned OR

It is necessary in an emergency to protect the child because the child, a sibling or a parent of the child (you) is subjected to or threatened with mistreatment or abuse.****
