The short answer is yes.
The short answer is yes, it is possible. However, just like any other case it is detail and case specific. The judge will make a best interest finding in determining what the best interest of the child is, and most of the time in this sort of situation that would be a stepped plan to introduce...

Only if the two of you have acquired real estate or other items of substantial value that you need to ensure are divided equitably. Barring that scenario, take with you the good memories and, hopefully, some lessons learned and move on. Leave all the bad memories and any resentment behind.... Read more »
We have an equal joint custody agreement in the state of Arizona.
There are a lot of things one CAN do and then there are the things one SHOULD do. You should file a joint petition with the Court (assuming the child's father agrees to his having sole custody) and have the Court issue a modified child custody order. Changing child custody and parenting time... Read more »
No. As long as you both agree and affix your notarized signatures, it does not have to match the original petition.
A week ago she attempted suicide and no one told the people caring for her about this. Im not sure what I can do I feel like if I call CPS or even the police my family may lie. This maybe her only chance to get help and I feel like they will try to discredit me.
If something happens to her and you did not report it, you will have to live with that. If you believe your daughters are being truthful and if you believe they will share what your niece told them with investigators, then I feel you have a duty to report the situation and let the chips fall where...

What an enormous disaster of a jurisdictional issue. Arizona no longer has any jurisdiction over the child because neither you, the child's egg donor, nor the child live in the state. Arizona courts should and most likely would dismiss any case you filed there for lack of jurisdiction.... Read more »
The jail won't let me bail her out. They didn't give her a lawyer or anything. And Im trying to help her but can't afford a lawyer. The jail is telling me she needs to go to court and bail needs to be posted there, but she won't be released until the court date. I am honestly... Read more »
the jail is giving you bad information. when someone is arrested for child support there is no bail to be paid, but a purge amount associated with the warrant. The purge amount gets paid and the individual will be let out with a hearing date set. If the purge cannot be met, she will stay in jail... Read more »
There is no specific form for this. The law library has a self service area which should contain blank motion forms that you can ask the court to do anything including modify arrears. I have also seen pro-per litigants use the child support modification form to modify arrears only.
I am assuming you are asking this in regards to child support arrears. Modifying an arrears payment requires a motion to modify through the Court. Forgiving the interest is a trickier question and may depend on whether your case is classified IV-D or not. The interest on arrears generally belongs... Read more »

My parenting time is from 4pm Friday to 5pm Sunday. Holiday is from 6pm Friday to 10 am Sunday. Do I get my child late and return him early or do I just do my normal parenting time even though the holiday falls through my weekend?
The BEST approach is always to resolve any dispute with your co-parent. The fact that you are on here asking this question leaves the impression that you and your child's other parent are not successfully communicating regarding custody issues. In the absence of the ability to treat each other... Read more »
If you are in Kileen, Texas, it will be very difficult for you to get personal assistance in your case unless you are hiring an attorney (I presume when you say "help" you are looking for legal assistance without cost).

my daughters father is to pay zero in child support. We just recently went to court and the worksheet says zero. I'm responsible for her insurance, im just not sure what that means. Before he was responsible for 50% of un covered medical. Does this now mean he's not responsible for that.
It likely means that the proportionate income assigned to both parents will control the division of those expenses, but you may want to review your decree with an attorney to be certain.
Well what rights does that give you ? An under what what kind of circumstances would it be used for?
"Power of Attorney" is a term commonly used for a legal arrangement where one person (the principal) gives legal authority to another person (the agent) to make certain decisions or to do certain acts on behalf of the principal. A power of attorney can be general to cover many... Read more »
