If you file for an OP in family court that is a civil matter and it will not affect his license. However, if he violates the order and gets arrested, then it becomes a criminal matter and if convicted of a felony, he would loose his license.
The best course of action is to have a consultation with an attorney and then retain one to guide you through the process and file all the necessary papers with the court and represent at all stages of the proceedings. You do not need your husbands agreement or permission to start a divorce.
i want to stop visits from happening because of some important issues we have been facing regarding toxic enviorment and my son doesnt like going with her but im forced to send him i dont know where to start with ending her visits

My mother and father divorced in 1984. My father was ordered to pay child support. My mother remarried in 1989 but my stepfather did not adopt me. Had he adopted me, would that have nullified the child support mandate?

It all becomes a question of what orders may have been issued. If you still live in Kings County, go to family court and file a writ, the mother will have to appear in court with the child and if you indeed have a valid order, you will leave the court with the child based upon your order.

You do not indicate who you are sending the custody order to. Once there is a custody order, you should get copies that are certified by the court and submit them where needed. For custody to be changed, there would have to be a petition or Order to Show Cause filed outlining the reasons why... Read more »
We have a personal loan under both our names and a loan on my deferred compensation under just my name. Took the loans out to consolidate our debts. We have no children and no other assets in question other than my pension and deferred comp. Thanks very much for any advice you can offer.
Debts taken for marital purposes are marital debt to be shared. How they are divided is something to be negotiated or if you can't decide then it will be decided by a court.

My son is paying for the tractor that was acquired during the marriage. He grows the crops and cares for the animals. I own the farm and pay all... Read more »
It is highly unlikely that any court would give her any of the proceeds from her deliberate act especially if the money is used either to pay off the tractor, fix the tractor or acquire a new one.

If the proceeding is over, then you would need to bring on a new action to get the documents if you have sole or joint custody. If the proceeding is still going, you can ask the court to order that you get copies of all the documents.
receive a letter from family court. He is refusing to show me the letter and is blaming me. Can family court up child support without both parties being informed?
