Thread: What to expect at TPR hearing?!?
been to exactly 1 TPR trial. we were prepped before the trial by the ADA because i would be testifying .i had been supoenaed, so i wasn't allowed in until all other testimony was given. after waiting in a small room for a few hours, i went in, was sworn in, and answered all of the questions that the assistant district attorney asked me. i tried to stick with facts, left out opinion--except for telling them how much i loved the kids--was questioned about wanting to keep them. that was mom's last complaint, that i'd only fostered to grow my family. untrue, btw. i had 3 adult kids by that time! i was not cross examined. i left the stand and was allowed to stay to hear the summations and the judge's comments. they were very colorful. he actually thanked me from the bench. i was shocked. then we left.
