You will likely need to open a probate estate to have any legal standing to do anything. The best and most efficient way seems to be what you already tried: reason with the roomate.

Would be worth a consult with a local attorney, but unless he took more than 50% of the proceeds, it's unclear whether you'd have a claim. You also have to consider whether it would be worth it financially for you to go after him.

Are you asking in relation to your husband? If the car is registered to you, and not your husband, then you would be the only one responsible.

Without knowing more about the shelter, it's hard to say what diligence is owed to you.

You probably need to file a 30-day notice to quit, then an eviction action. He is a month-to-month tenant. The court is correct that when it comes to land, a verbal agreement is worth the paper it's printed on.

First things first: yes, she can leave. While he may be the legal father, the mother has initial custody.

She should prepare to leave when it is safe to do so (e.g., has some place to go).

Depends on how the judgment is written.

Your general interpretation is correct. Presumably, you had a hearing where the judge said what the order will be. You, or your attorney - or perhaps the opposing attorney - was asked to reduce it all down to writing and file it for judge's signature. Orders typically have immediate effect.

You absolutely can request it. Up to the school administration.

This is likely a scam. Call the court indicated to confirm, but email - absent some pretty specific exceptions - is not a proper form of service to start a case.

Yes, especially if you are salaried.

Yes, it is a thing. See MCL 800.33. It's rarely successful but perhaps worth a try. The times I've seen it work are when there are verifiable exceptional circumstances well beyond "I've been good in jail".

Ordinarily, no. But best check with an attorney now that you've been served.

Highly unlikely. I take it the child is now a teenager? Before granting such a request, the judge may want to talk with the child in camera (private meeting in chambers) about the child's thoughts on the matter.

I'm unsure this is a crime as there's no indication of criminal intent. Fortunately for you, the company seems to want to make it right. Show them the listings of similar phones and tell them which one they should purchase for you.

How long has this been going on? Have you considered petitioning for custody / guardianship?

Could absolutely be normal. Have you called to inquire about the timeline? You are paying a professional to draft a complex and personalized document, not a fill-in-the-blank template (hopefully).

Potentially no. If there is no will that mentions the first son, that son would be considered an "omitted heir", potentially entitling him to the same share of the estate as the other son.

If divorce proceedings have started, it's generally unwise to do anything with assets or property at this point until determined by agreement or the court.

Your next step is to file an answer with the court and the party suing you. The only settlement that matters is what both parties agree to.
