Technically it is ok.

Some attorneys like more information, some even like last 4 of account number, to eliminate questions. Other attorneys prefer less and would just say 50% of the retirement accounts to go to the other person to allow some flexibility. No set rule - both have pros/cons... View More

By definition in Oklahoma 21 OS § 172, with Felonies, there are Principals (anyone who furthered the Felony act prior to or during the act itself -- aid and abet in the commission-even if not present), and Accessory After the Fact (anyone who helps conceal the already committed act). A good... View More

While I agree with my colleague there is a brief period where you can drive without a tag and only a bill of sale. This period is five days from the date of sale. After that you must have it titled/registered. If you purchased from a car lot they just provide you with a dealer tag which would allow... View More

In most situations you can deviate from the guidelines, especially if both sides have an attorney, or more specifically the one who would be affected more than the guidelines would reflect. In other words if the one receiving was getting less, if that person was represented, or if one was paying... View More

Typos are natural. It won’t get dismissed because of that, if you make it an issue the other party only has to resubmit it as an amended petition, but the petition is not the final decree, so it’s really not a major issue ‘normally’. You must answer the petition/summons within the allotted... View More

It depends on the time frame of when you were evicted. "Generally," after 30 days the items can often be considered as abandoned and thus up to the landlord to do with them as they see fit. Furthermore, they can put them into storage and you would be responsible for the storage fees.... View More

The date filed typically, however, if it is proven the person actively avoided being served that could potentially extend the time.

I agree with Mr. Louden - another potential aspect could be if there was a job history issue, and therefore the attorney is thinking more along the lines of having to argue for/against stable employment.

Technically it is still a state statute making it a felony. However, it has been rarely enforced since the 1960s. With the texas case of Lawrence it has become even more challenging because it’s a privacy issue between two consenting adults. Even though that case was a sodomy case between same... View More

Property taxes are still due regardless of how you obtained the property. Therefore the county can do that. The part that is not allowed is 'income tax' on the value of the property. It cannot be shown as income against you, assuming other factors do not apply, but since you are asking... View More

It is unfortunate that you feel the judge is ignoring procedure and the opposing party is getting away with things you do not agree with. You will not find any such forms here. This is a forum to get general answers to questions. I am not sure why you are unable to retain an attorney, but if you... View More

A booster seat is not allowed until after they turn 4. So while the booster seat may have buckled fine in the front seat it isn’t a car seat. Therefore the patrolman was correct in the citation of failure to use child restraints because the child was not in an actual car seat. For reference here... View More

In a general answer, yes you can be terminated for that. Same as a person driving after using medical marijuana can be arrested for DUI. Just because something has been made partially legal doesn’t trump other areas of law, or in this case business owners rights and responsibilities. With that... View More

This is dependent on previous court orders. If the Oklahoma court has established jurisdiction over the child then Oklahoma calculations would be used. Likewise for Texas. If there is not orders in place then you would use the resident state of the child, because that state has more of an interest... View More

If the life insurance does not state a beneficiary would be highly unusual the way the insurance companies work, so that should be researched more. Assuming there is not one listed, then the policy would most likely pay the decedants estate and then the proceeds would go through the normal process... View More

She would have a legal right to inquire - however, in Oklahoma, if one dies without a will then the state intestacy is used, the husband, the children, grandchildren of the decedent are the first in line, and it would not go to the parents unless there were no living spouse, children, or...

POAs are in effect until they are revoked typically. Not 100% of the time because there can be wording saying otherwise. Also if a person dies then the POA dies with them because the POA is only effective to act in the place of the person granting the POA in an action they could actually do... View More

If you failed to file your deed then you will most likely not receive the land because the other person did and will be viewed as the new owner. The original seller coiso be subject to some legal action on your part for unjust enrichment or fraud but you will need to contact an attorney to get the... View More

If she comes here to have the baby then you will most likely avoid the legal issues of multiple states and thus making it easier and cheaper for you.

Step parent adoptions are very common and to answer your question, and based on your given facts, probably yes. There are some avenues we often pursue to get that permitted through the courts. This is not something you will want to do on your own if you suspect resistance. Contact an adoption... View More
