It isn't possible to answer with any degree of specificity why you were not granted guardianship without seeing the court file. This is a situation where you need to schedule an appointment with an attorney with the paperwork you have.

My friend is my caregiver I privately pay her I have to have constant care and everyone else is out of my price range with that being said can that get her probation officer to not have her do her 3 days for breaking her probation for failing a drug trst

I am not licensed in Virginia, but I am licensed in North Carolina and several other states and will answer based on how North Carolina operates. Realistically, you'll need an attorney in each state or an attorney licensed in both states to do this.

You may need to hire a NC attorney to file a Partition Action. The other owner's money might be held by the

Contact an attorney and ask about a "Petition to Partition"; be sure to show them a copy of the agreement. Hopefully, the agreement will no longer be enforceable, and you can get half of your interest out of the property, especially since real estate values have significantly increased... View More
