You have a right to HIRE counsel, or try and get pro bono legal assistance. Your attorney can always request a continuance, and if the issues addressed in the papers you received on the 21st are addressing a new issue that you were first made aware of at that time the judge will likely grant one. If the matter being decided involves the safety of the child you should be prepared to answer any allegations and expect to have a temporary decision made at the first hearing though. Regardless of what the issue being raised is you definetly need to appear at the hearing, with your attorney, even if you only met them in the hallway right before the hearing.

Yes, you could get into legal trouble if you have a baby together and do not tell your husband where you are. If your husband does not abuse you or control you or harm you in any way he does deserve to be part of your child's life so seek legal counsel and get joint custody as long as your husband is not into drugs; a gang; an alcoholic and would be considered a fit father to the child.

I am married but separated from my husband we have a 1 year old child and I have custody with no order What are your legal rights until you get a custody order you live in MN?

You now only have physical custody, but both you and your husband have equal custody rights to the child. That means he has a right to have physical custody too, and will not get into any trouble if he physically takes the child into his care. If you are afraid he might take the child, you will need to obtain a temporary custody order, signed by a judge, to make sure you become the custodial parent. That said, depending on your husband, the longer you have physical custody of the child, the more difficult it will be for your husband to obtain legal custody should you divorce.
