2011 Petitions to the New Hampshire House— Petition 6: the Knightly Petition
Petition 6: the Knightly Petition
Additional commentary by Timothy Horrigan
(member of the House Petitions & Redress Committee)
There is a sad story behind this petition. Ms. Knightly was a single mom who had substance-abuse issues, and her daughter ended up being adopted, under very strange circumstances. She has turned her life around, but I don't think we will have much luck reversing the adoption. This case was one of those which inspired Al Baldasaro's memorable rant during the January 2010 marriage-equality hearings.
She filed a virtually identical petition— Petition #3— in 2010.
Her mother, Dot Knightly has become a well-known grandparents' rights advocate over the years. Dot Knightly's two other grandchildren (Candy's niece and nephew) have also been caught in the family law system's web.
