James W. Loose v Greg Abbot

Father Sues State of Texas for Unfair Custody Practices
A class action has been filed against Greg Abbot, the Attorney General for the State of Texas by a father who alleges that Texas law favors rights to custodial parents than to non-custodial parents. The plaintiff seeks to change the way that Texas law, especially the Family Court of Texas, establishes the delegation of rights between custodial and non-custodial parents.
Specifically, the complaint alleges that James M. Loose and Sheri W. Loose married in September, 1997 and had a child in 1998. They lived together until August, 1999 and were divorced shortly afterward. Ms. Loose became the custodial parent to the child and Mr. Loose now alleges that Texas law favors placing the child with the mother instead of the father and seeks to address those issues in this suit.
