Assuming you are clothed during these videos and are not otherwise involved in illegal activities, they are legal. Your mother is within her rights to record a conversation between the two of you. Oregon law is more murky as to whether she can record you when she is not part of the conversation.... View More

Actually a no contact Order IS a restraining order and while he can ask to have it lifted (you can't per se since the Order isn't directed at you), these sorts of requests are very common and are very rarely granted. You are under subpoena and your presence is NOT elective or voluntary.... View More

You cannot kidnap your own child.
Unfortunately, you do not have much recourse now as both children are adults.
The court cannot order the other parent to return them to you.
I am sorry that you are in this situation.
It is our understanding that no penalty is assessed when a QDRO is filed as part of a divorce settlement. The receiver of funds would have to pay taxes on that money, correct?
