If the property was owned prior to the marriage but did appreciate in value, the appreciation in value is divided.
The last order says parenting time is agreed upon. But if they are forced to come over the kids will act out and cause major problems. The children asked us to sign off.

Each time his parenting time is refused, he needs to file a complaint with the Friend of the Court. He should also file a motion for an actual parenting time schedule so he knows which days are his. You can't just "sign off" parental rights. This is only done in two circumstances.
I was told I was unable to care for him properly and that I needed to do what was best for him. I was forced to sign temporary guardianship in 2013, they told me if I didn't they would take him from me permanently. I was mentally abused into thinking I was a bad mother. I have now been... View More

I understand new Michigan law changed, and I do have legal rights to the house. She seems to think she can kick me out at any time, because the house is in her name,, and yes she did purchase the house originally.
answered on Feb 6, 2018
As long as you are residing in the marital home, she can't kick you out without a court order. She could get one in the divorce case or file an eviction. You do have a right to 50% of the equity earn on the home during the marriage.
What rights does the children’s mother have in regards to his estate.

I wasn't present while my name was being used. Fraud, right? Wouldn't the bank be responsible for allowing this to work when I wasn't even involved. I feel I've been seriously taken advantage of.

No, it isn't legal. You should contact the mortgage company and the title company.
Now after 3 visits my twin 15 year old boys are acting up, vandalizing the school and running away. My ex had picked the boys up (not for her visitation) and did not let me know.

You should file a motion asking the court to go back to supervised parenting time.
answered on Jan 25, 2018
That all depends on if there is a custody order and what it says. If there is no custody order or one that doesn't grant you custody, you should contact an attorney and file either a complaint or a motion and request and ex-parte order.
We've been married 8 years. He had changed his will before we got married and left everything to me. We had a disagreement, he got mad and changed his will in favor of his brother.
