I am asking for a friend , who is the sister of the brother with the will . She lives in Georgia now and just needs to know what is in the will !
Was the Mother's Will filed for Probate? If so, go to Probate Court and read the Will and File. If not, then the Will has no effect. The Sister could then file for an Administration if needed, but she needs the advice of a competent attorney.
If the Sister also inherited from the Parent, then 1/3 of the net proceeds. I doubt your
Sister is an actual mediator. You may want to hire an attorney to determine heirship, place it of record, then help push the Partition Sale along.
Agreed
You will not receive an Annulment by agreement, and it almost inconceivable you will obtain one in any case. I have actually done one in 34 years of practice. Hire an attorney to get an Irreconcilable Differences Divorce.
After being appointed by the probate court, the executor has the power to collect all of the decedents assets, including obtaining court orders to third parties to turn them over to the executor.
His ex wife hasn't allowed him to have any communication for 3yrs. His daughter is 14yrs old.
Yes, your husband should be able to see his daughter even though he is not current on child support. If you petition the court to enforce his parenting time with his daughter, however, beware that the mother could retaliate by coming after him for unpaid child support.
I want to know about getting visitation set for long distance
Hi, it sounds like you may need to contact an attorney in the State of Georgia, because this is the home state of the child. I recommend Jack Strother, III in Savannah, GA. I worked with him when I lived there, and I even hired him to do my own divorce. Mr. Strother has handled child custody cases... Read more »
His mom goes months without talking to him. He is 2yrs old and a type 1 diabetic. I take care of him 98% of the time.
Hi, if the biological parents of the child have left the child with you for an extended period of time, you can petition the court for emergency protective custody on the basis that the child is dependent and neglected.
There are no transcripts of any hearing of my case available, however, the clerk's notes clearly state the judge's ruling. Can this be used to support the reason a motion was denied?
If you are filing an Appeal, you can file a Statement of the Evidence under the Appellate Rules. If a Rule 59 Motion, then just ask the Court to order what you think should be the exact ruling.
Termination of alimony was denied and appealed, then reversed and remanded back to court. How long can this be heard in the trial court? Is there a statute?
Unless the Court of Appeals placed a time on the matter being heard, it will be docketed like all other cases for the county.
My son was arrested and cooperating with the officer and while laying on the ground my son said the officer cussed him and then stomped his head into the ground before handcuffing him
Your Son's lawyer needs to specifically request the Video in his Discovery Request at Criminal Court. However Discovery is not available in General Sessions Court, so you may not get it until he is Indicted. If still at Sessions, prepare for a vigorous Preliminary Hearing, especially if...

The father had 4 children. 2 are adults now, 1 other and mine are minors. At time of death the father was still paying child support. The sister n law has been given Administratrix over the estate. I read somewhere that child support would have to still be paid up and would come out of the estate... Read more »
You need to make a claim in the probate case, and don't delay because there are very short deadlines. You should hire an attorney to help you with this.
It probably has no legal effect. It might be used to cross examine the other owner in Court, but again it is basically worthless. Alot of properties require Titles, like land and cars. Hire an attorney to advise you.
I just signed a new lease in August that ends in August 2022.
If you do not have a contractual right to possession, the lessor/owner can file a Detainer
Warrant to remove you. Make a choice.
It depends. Generally, the TPP is in effect until a Permanent Parenting Plan is reached via agreement or Trial. Some TPP's have dates defined in them. Most do not. Its a Court Order so it will be valid until it is modified. I hope this helps.
I was served a subpoena to produce all records and recordings of a child I have custody of and both of the child's parents.... including pictures, reports and video recordings. Both parents are working to get the child back. I'm keeping the child out of DCS custody until one or both... Read more »
You can file a Motion to Quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum, but I seriously doubt Juvenile Court will listen to you. The Subpoena sounds broad but probably legally sufficient.
This divorce was filed in January of this year by her. However we agreed on it July of 2020. After she’s filed the court hearing was continued by her party. Since then nothing has been done and it’s been months. Which is why I requested a hearing. I have done everything she’s asked for and... Read more »
You may consult with a local family law attorney and see if there is anything else that can be done. In general an attorney filing a notice of unavailability will result in the hearing being continued until the next available date. This sounds like your divorce has been dragged out. If there are no... Read more »
That will be a failure to appear. Get your lawyer to ask for a continuance on those grounds. Do something besides getting a mittimus or capias issued.
A Dismissable could be expunged. Conviction is permanent and no expungement.
Hi, my parents are taking me to court for emergency custody of my daughter. She has been living with them for 3 years off and on { turns 4 in March} I have all the text messages where I have been trying to get her back but they would not let me. I do not do any drugs/alcohol or anything. I also... Read more »
Make sure you show up for the court date. I highly suggest you retain an attorney to help with your situation.
Outside of that, the State of TN usually holds preference to the biological parent unless there are other circumstances like dependency and neglect, drug and alcohol abuse, or... Read more »
(I left due to him being emotionally abusive.) We were never married, and I have been taking care of them full time. I've been staying with my mother a couple hours away from him (He stills lives with his parents). He has typically helped me take care of their needs financially, outside the... Read more »
If there isn't any type of custody order from the court and potentially he didn't sign the birth certificate, you won't have to do anything and you can just move. However, this is for TN. I do not know the laws in NM and could be completely different than in TN regarding child... Read more »
