annulment of adoption

Read a random definition: variable annuity

A quick definition of annulment of adoption:

Annulment of Adoption: When a court decides to cancel or end an adoption, it is called an annulment of adoption. This means that the legal relationship between the adopted child and their adoptive parents is no longer valid. It is similar to undoing or reversing the adoption process. Another term for this is abrogation of adoption.

A more thorough explanation:

Annulment of adoption is the legal process of canceling or revoking an adoption. It is also known as abrogation of adoption. This means that the adopted child is no longer considered legally adopted and the adoptive parents no longer have any legal rights or responsibilities towards the child.

For example, if a couple adopts a child but later discovers that the birth parents did not give their consent or that there was some other legal issue with the adoption, they may seek an annulment of adoption. Another example is if the adoptive parents are found to have abused or neglected the child, the court may order an annulment of adoption to protect the child's welfare.

The annulment of adoption process varies depending on the laws of the state or country where the adoption took place. It typically involves filing a petition with the court and providing evidence to support the request for annulment. The court will then review the case and make a decision based on the best interests of the child.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)

Give it 4 more weeks at least. Everyone in this chat needs to wait longer.
