Race: White
Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: Green
Approximate Height: 5’ 10”
Approximate Weight: 190lbs
Reason For Termination Request:
Petitioner will show a history of Malicious Parent Syndrome by Respondent leading to Petitioner being Alienated from Child and unable to form a relationship or bond with child. This is detrimental to the child’s psychological and emotional well-being and development, leading to anxiety, confusion, and difficulty forming relationships for the child. The Respondent has habitually used the Pinellas Family Court System to inflict threats, harassment, emotional distress, and continual conflict towards the Petitioner. When those means have proven to be ineffective the minor child is used to continue these behaviors at the detriment to the child. This request is made by the Petitoner under his own free will, is VOLUNTARY and not the result of coercion. The Petitioner acknowledges the termination is final and irreveocable, and Petitioner will no longer have the right to custody, guardianship, or control of the child.
