Your should discuss the information with dad and see if you can reach an agreement and give him the information on the children's health. As long as the travel time or being with dad does not harm the children, Dad can decide if he should to have his visitation time when the children are ill.
I have full custody of my son in Washington, his dad filed to petition for a parenting plan in Nevada since we've been here for 6 months, i don't want to stay, can I leave?
answered on Feb 6, 2023
It appears that the child might have changed residency after being in Nevada for 6 months or more. You might now need to get Dad's permission to relocate or file a motion with the Court.
Relatives are living there rent free because of health issues. I want to store my dad's belongings there and they are telling me there is no room. I've heard my uncle is going to try and get it. What can I do or where do I start? There is no will. Do I have any authority at all? Please help

Not sure of the entire situation here, but.... A judge will recuse himself/herself from a case when they feel there is a conflict of interest present in their continue representation, therefore a recusal means no longer being involved in the case to sign any future Orders.
Since NV is a common law state am I entitled to part of the house/equity? Even if a quick claim deed was signed?
If so how do we claim this?
answered on Oct 26, 2022
Nevada does not recognize common law, but is a community property state. This means that anything that is acquired during the marriage, debts, properties and/or assets are subject to equitable division upon a divorce. Thus the house that was purchased during the marriage would have been subject... Read more »
