It depends. It is rare for there to be grounds for a kidnapping charge to be filed against a parent of a child. If you are not legally established as the father, then there may be grounds for kidnapping. If you haven't seen your child in years, then there may be grounds. If there is an... View More

You should contact a criminal defense attorney. If there is also a custody dispute, then you may also need to file a custody action or a custody modification action. It doesn't sound like this last exchange was very positive for you or the children. Going forward, you may need to have your... View More
she is not on the lease and the lease specifically states "no guest".
answered on Jan 2, 2024
Potentially yes. This may also be a breach by the tenant that is on the lease. Sometimes it makes sense to move forward with the eviction process against the tenant (and thus anyone else on the premises there unlawfully) if the tenant has breached the lease by allowing those not on the lease to...

I called the police and the non emergency number of the local pd. They said since it was on private property can’t do anything but to leave info with worker at building parking lot. I told them I don’t want a hit and run charge they said this should be fine. Am I safe from any charges?
answered on Jan 2, 2024
You should follow up with the person that you hit, even if on private property. Assuming you have since had contact with who you hit, generally, calling in the accident and reporting yourself to law enforcement at the scene prevents the prosecutor from filing hit and run charges. If hit and run... View More

Your factual situation is unusual. You should speak with a criminal defense attorney. Generally you can't get physical in order to protect your space or property from a roommate without the danger of being charged with assault.

Can they give the citation? Yes. If you get your tags updated and show such to law enforcement, can you likely get one or both charges reduced or dropped, probably.
My sister had her children taken from her home in February. She was granted supervised visitation, due to an ongoing criminal case. The criminal case will be closed on January 9th with a plea deal. All of the things on her case plan has been done. They are working in family therapy
answered on Dec 23, 2023

However, the child welfare case is generally treated separately from the criminal... View More

If this is just temporary and both parents are in agreement, then you can generally use the temporary delegation of parental powers form on the Nebraska Supreme Court's website.

I thought the court order says child support not spousal support is this legal for her to do?
answered on Dec 22, 2023
Child support is for support of the children. However, it is owed to the custodial parent, not the children. Thus, if there is back child support, it is owed to the parent that raised the children, not the children.
Childsupport ordered they didnt even go based on his actual salary causs he is union.he lied on his income only claimed 2 employers.i proved it in court first appearance.what can i do?.
answered on Dec 13, 2023
If you disagree with what the Court ordered, you can challenge the order. Your options to challenge the order depend on how long ago the order was entered. If it was entered very recently, you may be able to file a motion for new trial or an appeal, among other possible motions. Some of these... View More
