You will need to file a request / petition / motion (depending on the jurisdiction, it can be called different things) to modify the child support in the court where the child support order was issued UNLESS that court is in a state where neither you, your ex, nor the children still reside. If the... Read more »
Someone in TX was sending 6 different people packages containing drugs. They were pulled over and arrested on the way to the post office. What do the recipients of those packages need to watch out for? Can they be arrested? Is it likely? The sender was arrested for trafficking.
It is unlikely you could be arrested at this point but you could certainly be placed under observation and/or questioned regarding the package which was addressed to you. Absent evidence of communication between the two of you regarding your agreement to receive the package, they do not have much... Read more »
Alright, might sound like a weird situation but here we go. I recorded a family therapy session on my phone. It only has the audio. I have epilepsy and part of that is memory problems. So, I recorded the session so I could make a transcript of the session to read over and understand better and... Read more »
This is an example of why you do not take legal advice from therapists. This is an extremely complex question and I would need more information to provide the best answer but based on what you have described, I would not be concerned. Even if the recording is technically illegal, which is not... Read more »
He wouldn’t get the help here can she do that
These are unprecedented times. We have never seen school closures like this before. My best advice is to try to peacefully resolve this. You, your ex, your son: you all have a lot more stress in your daily lives due to the panic over this virus. Why add to it? You should both be engaged in his... Read more »
He sold his home, she had the money put into an old account with both their names (left over from car loan) now she has taken a ton of money and he has no clue. This man has nothing but what was from the house. She thinks it's not illegal. Isn't it theft by deception? What can I do to... Read more »
She could be at risk of being charged with exploitation of a vulnerable adult. If you have any influence with your father, he needs to remove his money from the account and put it in an account only he or trusted persons have control over.

I am taking my son out of state for one of the weeks of summer vacation. My Ex says that I need to give her my travel itinerary for this time and make him available for phone calls even though some of this is camping and cell reception may not be available. Do I need to give her all of this... Read more »
Providing an itinerary for travel is usually a part of the custody agreement. Even if it was left out, it is a really good idea and it doesn't cost you anything. If the travel dates are flexible, say so and keep the non-custodial parent updated. Make the child(ren) available by cell phone when... Read more »

To Pay child support once I get married? (Me and the mother were never married)
You should not be required to pay child support because you would basically be paying yourself since you and your new wife would share the marital estate. You should request the Court vacate the child custody and child support order once the marriage is official. The order will remain in place... Read more »
You can also review this website: https://www.utcourts.gov/howto/expunge/. It provides a lot of useful information about what can and cannot be expunged. As I am sure Mr. Cramer would agree, expungements can be a serious pain in the posterior. If you believe, after reviewing the information on the... Read more »
She never got approved from my husband to represent his codependent prior or after to 7/13/20.Is this an error by his lawyer that would constitute a dismissal of my husband's case?
If your husband and a co-defendant are both being represented by the public defenders office, THAT is a problem. The PD cannot merely assign two separate attorneys to co-defendants. The court must appoint conflict counsel to one of the defendants from outside the PD's office.

Felony was in arizona, conviction set aside 7 years ago. Waiting 3 more years for firearms rights to be restored. All other civil rights were restored.
A bow is not a firearm. To the best of my knowledge, there is no prohibited possessor statute under Arizona or federal law which applies to bows. You should not be in violation of any law by bowhunting with a felony on your criminal record.
You would need to file for a modification of child custody, child support, and parenting time in the court where the joint custody order was issued. Explain that you have had sole responsibility for the past four years and the mother has not made any attempts to exercise any parenting time. You... Read more »

Unfortunately, many courts have basically suspended the Constitution during the panic raging over coronavirus. I agree with Ms. Cleveland that, if he does not qualify for a public defender, he needs to obtain private counsel immediately.
Revised details. Family court date set for Friday 17th. She submitted to evidence a snap shot of a text between her and me daughter stating “try to record him”, (my wife and I conversation). If I recall at that moment we were in the car driving home. I very lightly talking to my wife about my... Read more »
You would need to file a report with the law enforcement agency in whose jurisdiction the alleged crime allegedly occurred. For the "solicitation" that would be wherever the conversation took place. If the recording was actually made, you would need to contact the agency within whose... Read more »
The longer you wait, the worse any potential consequences may be. It would be better to have an attorney communicate with law enforcement for you but, if that is not an option, you may want to notify them that your previous statements may have been incorrect. You do not have to outright say you... Read more »
As of this afternoon, I checked myself into a hotel to calm the situation down in the house. There has been no physical altercations in the place I’ve never been involved.
The short answer is yes. One of you needs to file and you need to establish temporary custody orders so that you both know what your rights are concerning custody and visitation.
Likely not much. Since your rights have been terminated, you are no longer an interested party in the adoption proceeding. Am attorney would need a lot more information to evaluate whether anything can be done at this point. I can assure you that without extremely competent local counsel, you will... Read more »
My girls are 14 and 16. They are flying and staying in Florida for a week. I object to this, but is there any legal way for me to stop him from putting them, and my family here at risk?
No. Even if you could get a hearing scheduled, which is unlikely, I cannot imagine a court enjoining your husband from travel with the children which is otherwise allowed by the existing agreement.
Side note: there have been virtually zero deaths in patients under 21. Unless your family in... Read more »
