Or custody or even discussing with me

Hello, I'm sorry that you're having this trouble. If your mother has not gained any type of legal custody over your children then she would be guilty of kidnapping. The only way that your mother can take your child is through a legal guardianship. This is only done through court. Did you... View More

When my ex and I got divorced, I signed a quitclaim deed on the home and gave her everything. In the judgement for divorce, it states that she shall refinance the property within 2 years. We are approaching the 2 year mark and she has not refinanced. What legal options do I have?
answered on Dec 16, 2020
I would send her an email and ask what the problem is and why she hasn't refinanced the property yet? When she answers you, listen to what she says carefully. "Contempt" is the "willful violation of a court order." If she has tried and her credit shows that she has, yet... View More

I was told since they where adopted after i was born it makes me next of kin.

If they were legally adopted, they are your LEGAL brothers in every way!
answered on Nov 17, 2020
Under "rules of descent," an "adopted child" is equal to a natural child, in every conceivable way. You're the "first born" and that carries a lot of responsibility in a family, but not really legally. Good luck to you!
answered on Nov 17, 2020
Hello,
You are either "next of kin" or you're not. It has nothing to do with where you are physically or legally right now. If you were in prison, you would still be "next of kin." If you were across the world, you'd still be "next of kin." The... View More
I live with my grandparents who are my legal guardians. My mother was abusive mentally, my family including my mother is trying to take my baby when I give birth, I live in Idaho are there any laws saying they cant take my baby?
answered on Nov 17, 2020
No, there are NO laws which say that your family cannot take your baby. If you are under 18 yrs. old, you are considered a "child" in Idaho. If you had sex with a young man prior to becoming 18, he could be charged with a number of crimes. However, if we look beyond that now, since you... View More

I paid the down payment and some of the car payments, the registration and repairs.

Nope. You were the first signer on the LOAN, right? Your name is or is not on the title? If your name IS on the title as a "co-owner," then you have as much right as he does to possess your car. However, how the car is titled is a big deal in Idaho. If you haven't paid the car... View More

The person who is harassing you is REALLY CLOSE TO being charged with a Felony, entitled "Intimidation of Witness," and if he comes anywhere near you, I would notify the police immediately. He cannot legally harass you or bother you because you have testimony that will hurt him.

A "Motion for Temporary Orders," is difficult to achieve; there will be notice give to you of when the hearing is. You should hire legal counsel to respond to this. However, if you are unable to do so, you need to prepare for doing it yourself. File an "answer" to the... View More
She wants rights to her as well as to fight him in court. She is saying if I don't do this today. Then she will take me and her father to court and I wont have visitation unless supervised.

This is a pickle! Are you >18? (over 18?) Your mom is probably right (like always, huh?) Even in a great state like Idaho, Marijuana is still illegal and (as you know) Idaho will prosecute you for having it on you. Possession of Marijuana is also a bummer because if you get convicted of it... View More
Long story short... We had a flood in our home. The contractor we hired tore out most of the inside of our home and then took off with the insurance money. So.. we had no other choice but to take a loan out on our other property, which was fully paid off. We hired a new contractor, who suggested a... View More
answered on Nov 5, 2020
Okay, if I understand what you've complained about, you have several issues and I'll take one at a time:
First: the first contractor basically started tearing the inside of your house apart and then split? In Idaho you have the right to require the first contractor to either... View More

You don't lose any rights by being forcibly removed from your own home. The frustration you feel is felt by every, single male who is removed and now has to pay for two (2) residences. If you own it outright without your mate's co-ownership, simply sell it out from under her and buy a... View More
My husband's ex moved out of state thousands of miles away to follow her new husband in his career in the air force. We're trying to come up with a parenting plan to allow as much time for her with the kids as possible, but she's wanting the kids to miss 2 weeks of school each year... View More

Are these consecutive or contiguous weeks? Second question, two weeks is not a terribly long time. They can also take schoolwork home and study remotely so why are you willing to spend thousands of dollars on attorneys for something simple that you should be able to work out in emails?
answered on Oct 19, 2020
More information is needed to answer your question. Idaho is an "at-will" employment state. You are not guaranteed your job back. However, you might have a case if you believe your (former) employer refused to hire you back for a discriminatory reason (i.e. race, gender, disability, age, etc).

Hi there,
Yes you need to have a co-signer, not because you may not have good credit but for the same reason that you may NOT title a car in your name, until you're 18 yrs. old. So, right now you can titled it in yourname/co-signer's name and then in one year, re-title it in just... View More
