You can evict them through the formal eviction process if they will not leave upon your request.
Her will stipulates that if any of her children passes away before the final distribution is made, that child's share is divided among the remaining living beneficiaries.

Your will can not override her will.
The settlement offer is for 1/2 the amount he owes claiming he will pay my son and i a lump sum if I cancel the child support order

Whether you accept it is up to you. You are entitled to the full amount - though not in a lump sum.
my children hate going there in the first place, the house is always filthy as my ex and his wife leave it a mess and leave it to pile up for our kids to clean it when they have to go to his house.

I am sorry to hear about your situation. If there is a court order allowing him parenting time, then you have to send the children. If you feel that a modification of parenting time is warranted, then you may be able to request a modification.

If she has not complied with a court order, then the court order can be moved to be enforced.
Our life insurance policies have beneficiaries as do our retirement accounts. We will name each other as agents/beneficiaries and another family member as a secondary agent.

It is always a good idea to have a will to ensure that your property passes as you wish rather than by state law. Additionally in your will you appoint a personal representative to handle the estate. Certain retirement accounts may be passed to the other spouse if you have a survivor benefit plan... View More

A CFI is appointed by the Court and must be non-biased. The CFI never evaluates a single party but rather speaks to both parents and the children and makes a recommendation about allocation of parental responsibilities.
I have had temporary custody of my almost 2 year old for a year and a half. The magistrate keeps pushing out our case. During status conferences she only would address the mother. The mother never did anything the court asked her to. Accused me of abusing her and my son and did not submit any... View More

It is difficult to establish bias as it has to be based on more than a disagreement with the magistrate's decisions. You will have to have some independent witnesses if you would like to support an allegation of bias.

I have been planning to leave an emotional and verbally abusive marriage. I am making a safe plan to leave. I got a job and have been pre-approved to buy a home. Will my husband tried to fight for the house if he finds outs? I am sincerely doing this for my safety and my kids. We... View More

I am sorry to hear about your situation. In your situation, if you would like to purchase a home before the dissolution is final, it may be best to file for legal separation or wait until after a dissolution to purchase the property. Anything that you purchase after a decree of legal separation is... View More

It sounds like you need a modification to the parenting plan based on the move. Given that the intent was that Mother should have summer parenting time, you should allow her the time even though she has relocated closer. You can file a motion to modify parenting time to get the ball rolling if she... View More
She is now wanting to exercise her parenting time for the summer. Am I still required to send him to her house for the summer.

I am sorry to hear about your situation. Everyone is obligated to follow the court order in existence. If a modification or an emergency restriction is needed, then it is necessary to file with the court to make the change if there is already an order in existence,
how do we go about changing the custody agreement? the state we moved from is too far away to fly out just to alter one part of the divorce. I live in Colorado now and he and the children are in New Mexico.
answered on May 17, 2021
The state that issued the order no longer has jurisdiction since you both and the children have left. If the children live in New Mexico, that is the state that now has jurisdiction.
Child (17) was previously unknown. The mother's rights were terminated when child was 12. Presumably, so was the father's rights because they didn't know who he was but ran legal announcements before the adoption. Child was adopted by a relative & a non-relative. What is the... View More

Child support generally only goes back to the time of filing a motion for child support, not before. Here, whether his rights were terminated and/or on whether parentage can be established may also be relevant factors.
I cosigned for an ex partner, the relationship was abusive and I no longer have any contact with her at all. She has since missed 23 payments on that car and is still affecting my life. How do I go about getting my name off of the car and not hurting my credit anymore than it is already hurt?
answered on May 11, 2021
If you are married, you can file for dissolution and property settlement. If not, when you co-signed, you agreed to pay if she did not. Absent her consent to refinance in her own name, you are legally obligated to pay if she does not.
It was something I wanted private because the case was dismissed. And from what my girlfriend said, "Her mom knows people" and that really puts me in allot of unease.

Criminal records are publicly available. There is no consent required to obtain publicly available information.

It depends on what you mean by aggressive. A emergency restriction requires proving that the parent is endangering the child.
answered on May 4, 2021
If the parent did tis in front of the child it could be considered emotionally abusive.
I have arrears that need paying. Close to 8k. I’ve paid and have proof of paying close to 3500 of those arrears. Child support is saying I’ve only paid 1k even after sending them the proof. What can I do to get them to change the balance owed?
answered on May 3, 2021
I am sorry to hear about your situation. You may want to ask them why they are not crediting all of your proof, or have an attorney coordinate that issue with them for you.

You will have to obtain a dividing order prepared by someone who specializes in the field. Then one or the other of you will have to file it with your employer.
