Do I have to pay taxes on the money I got from my farm inheritance?

Technically, no. You could be found in contempt of court for moving him, which is a separate criminal charge on you. I am not exactly clear on what you mean by "deemed dangerous" and whether or not this a finding after a trial by a judge or a jury, so more information is needed to fully answer this... Read more »

Child support for your 19-year-old child should end when he turned 19, assuming he has graduated from high school. His being in college should not matter. However, it appears you have another child. So, child support should be re-calculated with the current incomes and time-sharing factors. You... Read more »
She has a student loan and credit cards that she is unable to pay due to the amount required to take care of health needs
She should seek a forbearance due to her illness unless she has a lot of other debt as well, especially since the student loans are no dischargeable. She should consult a competent bankruptcy attorney to discuss her full options.
I have started the child support process without a court ordered child custody agreement?

If you have any pre-sentence confinement credit, that will reduce your sentence (unless that credit has already been applied). The sheriff can also award you reductions based on policies and programs established by the sheriff for county jail inmates.
Should I buy insurance and registration before court?
Your brother needs to register the car and get insurance for it. Proof of proper registration and current insurance is what you need to take to court and is what will help you the most.
