Can I with-hold my child from the father until Child Support/Joint custody is discussed at meeting?

The father of my child and I recently seperated I moved out from our home to go and stay with my sister with my child and focus on myself. Father and I agreed on him coming get or see our child whenever. One day he calls me and tell me he wasn't bringing her back instead bringing her to go stay with some family a hour away over Texas state line because he did not want her living with me where I was (he does not like my sister at all).

This is my response to you: 1. Keeping the child without other parent knowing where the child is, itself amounts to kidnapping; 2. Therefore get an interim measure from court to have the custody of the child; 3. Once the court's orders are confirmed then only you or your spouse will get joint or sole legal custody; 4. Settle the matter in court.

protect cash gifts from future claims

My grandmother is selling one of her properties. She will gift 50 lakhs to me by transferring money from her bank account to mine. I operate all her documents and bank accounts. She is of sound mind, under no pressure, and she is not manipulated. She is gifting this money at her own will. I am concerned someone else in the family might come up later on and claim that I had done something illegal to get that money from her. What documents should I prepare to prevent that.
