Legal Question in Personal Injury in California

I am a California resident was happily married until my husband had was beat by someone so bad that he was left permanently disabled and had huge braid damage. I tried to absorb the situation as best I could at the time and take care of him, but I couldn't deal with the situation anymore. My father in law who was a paralegal put in a lawsuit against the person responsible for this and I signed a power of attorney. This took years and while all of this was happening I started using drugs and I lost it. I went in an out of jail and my whole life was ruined. Now that I am trying to find out where my husband is they won't allow me to see him, know where he is, or allow me to know what happened to the money. His family sent him away to another State and I am not allowed to know anything about him. I want to know what I can do. I want to be a part of his life. I understand that he does not remember what happened or who I am but we are not divorced. Am I allowed to know about him?

I'm so sorry to hear about all of this. You may be better off if you re-post this question under Family Law instead of Personal Injury Law.

Good luck.

Go to the courthouse and look up the case under his name. The lawsuit is a public record and you will be able to see what happened.
