Update on Knight’s Case: Seeking Adoption Hearing Transcript 

I am actively working to obtain the transcript from the adoption hearing. However, adoption hearings are considered sealed documents,  which means access to them is restricted without a judges permission. Despite this challenge, I remain committed to securing the necessary information.

Recognizing the limitations regarding the sealed adoption hearing transcript, I have taken proactive steps. I have filed an affidavit and court papers with the justice of the courts in Edmonton, Alberta. This affidavit serves as a formal statement, outlining her position and supporting her case while awaiting a court date.

My determination to assert my rights as a biological parent remains unwavering. I believe that prioritizing bio-parents’ applications for parental rights before adoption proceedings is crucial. My case sheds light on the broader issue faced by other parents in similar situations. 

 
It is inconceivable that a mother who has consistently complied with legal requirements and actively participated in her children’s lives since their birth should ever find herself in the position of having to plead for a rightful place in their lives.!!
