He's fallen behind over the past 8 months. He's unemployed and that situation is likely to continue for the next several months. He may have to file for bankruptcy, but,if he files for bankruptcy, will that go on my credit record?

Not sure what you mean by "sign over his rights." To who? If he has been determined to be the legal father then he doesn't get to just sign over his rights to the state. He is legally obligated to pay child support whether he sees his child or not. If you have a dispute about... Read more »

If there is no court order granting him parenting time and you were never married to him then he has no legal rights established as the father. You can move out of state.
Motion to modify in 11/2019. Doesn’t Colorado have a statute against someone filing this much within 2 years? he also filed an emergency motion to restrict parenting, judge ruled in our favor. Is this frivolous behavior accepted by the court?
A motion for a change in majority time parenting can be filed every two years, although the initial order does not count towards the time limit. As far as a motion for restriction, more is needed than just the fact that he did not prevail.
Can I file a motion to dismiss if my ex filed another motion to modify parenting tine within the 2 year Colorado statute? In addition he filed an emergency petition to restrict parenting, at the hearing the judge ruled in my favor, basically told him he didn’t know what emergency meant. He is... Read more »

If the step family cared for him for at least six months no longer than six months ago, the step family may have standing to intervene and to ask for custody.

You can respond with evidence that you have not abandoned the child. You also always have the right to file a motion to enforce parenting time or for contempt if the other parent is not complying with a parenting time order.

This depends on the exact wording of the divorce decree. You can not go back and try to change that. Your husband's social security will not be affected.

I am divorced and have a custody agreement in place. My ex has not visited my daughter nor contacted her in almost 8 years. He has not paid child support for the past 4 years. Can I file to terminate his parental rights? My daughter is almost 13 and I have talked with her about it and she wants it... Read more »
Generally, you can only "terminate parental rights" in the context of a step-parent adoption. So, if your husband wants to adopt your child, it is necessary to terminate the parent-child relationship between your daughter and her father. You may have grounds to do so based on what you...

I am assuming that the court set aside the property orders, but not the decree of dissolution of marriage. You are probably still divorced. In that case the revocation upon divorce statute may apply if the insured dies. You could ask the court to have you named you as beneficiary if appropriate You... Read more »
We filed our case Dec 3 2019. We went through mediation and pre hearing with the judge already. This is a child custody hearing. Is she allowed to get a lawyer so late in the process? Also she claims my supervised UA's are not sufficient and wants a hair follicle test now. I do not see how... Read more »
A person can retain a lawyer at any time. If one person in a court proceeding has an attorney, then the other should seriously consider doing so as well. You are right that a personal opinion is not sufficient to support a hair follicle test. She should be introducing some evidence as to why the UA... Read more »
I am sorry to hear about your situation. If credit cards were procured under your name without your consent, that is a criminal matter.
