Summons by Publication
The State of Indiana to the Presumed Paternal Grandparents of the above-named minor child, Rhonda Phillips and Edward Anderson, and any other persons who may be concerned:
YOU ARE NOTIFIED that a Petition for Adoption of minor child has been filed in the above named court. The name and address of the attorney representing Plaintiff is Madison K. Hernandez of Bayliff, Harrigan, Cord, Maugans & Cox, P.C., 319 North Main Street, Post Office Box 2249, Kokomo, Indiana 46904-2249.
Your right to petition a court for grandparent visitation rights would be affected if the petition for adoption would be granted. As such, you are being notified of the pending petition in order to provide you with an opportunity to consult an attorney regarding your rights as they pertain to grandparent visitation. As the adoption petition is likely to be finalized in approximately thirty (30) days, any petition for visitation you wish to pursue should be on file with the appropriate court as soon as possible, as once an adoption is granted, you may no longer have the right to pursue grandparent visitation. This notice does not entitle you to be a party to the adoption case or entitle you to contest the adoption or guarantee that any petition for grandparent visitation, if filed, would be granted.
