He paid 3000 and i paid 7000 but the title is in his name now... What can I do
I need to know what "Mother's address shall be utilized for all mailing and educational purposes for the minor children means in our Divorce degree. I understand the mailing part but does the educational purposes mean that my kids will go to school where my ex-wife lives even if she moves?
Usually that language is to state an address to (1) have one address for important mail to come to so it is not missed and cannot be send to multiple places and (2) direct which school district to use unless otherwise stated in your agreement, parenting plan, or judgment. If the rest of the... Read more »

You need to consult with a family law attorney and have them review your parenting plan there maybe quite a lot that can be done. Do not wait as time may make it difficult or impossible to do anything.
The court said they weren't comfortable ordering support because mom's drug habits, mental stability, etc prohibit her from maintaining a job. Does this make it impossible to file for support without getting a new custody agreement since the original says no support?
I live in Missouri. I plan to have a child while single. But I would like to terminate the paternal rights. The donor would potentially be from a donor that is not through a sperm bank. I’ve found conflicting answers. I don’t qualify for state aid for a child either (year wages too high). I... Read more »
