There is no Idaho criminal law prohibiting an adult female from sharing a bedroom with a family member.

It sounds as though she did trick you, in order to establish residency in Idaho. I don't know what was going on at the time she wanted to move back to the states between you two. But it doesn't matter now. She has filed for divorce, in Idaho. Here are some suggestions, with the most... View More

Your daughter is too young to have sex with a 21 year old man, period. IF the father permits them to live together, as "house mates," no foul. If the father allows them to sleep in the same bed, that is illegal and NO the girlfriend has NO liability, because she has NO rights to your... View More

Yes. Idaho has no statute of limitations for collecting child support. Suspending your DL is a Legislative creation. Chapter 12, Title 32. The limitation of 5 yrs. where did you get that? I have made a rather cursory check of the limitations of certain actions in Idaho, and unfortunately, I... View More

Yes she can. At this point, until you establish parental RIGHTS to your child, the ONLY thing Idaho gives you are RESPONSIBILITIES! Financial responsibilities. However, just because you're paying child support, that doesn't bestow a SINGLE RIGHT on you. To get RIGHTS to a child, you... View More

The answer to your question is NO. Your bf/now husband and you however, are in the position now of replacing the birth father BY ADOPTION with your new husband. But you are going to need to file two petitions:

What do they tell you as their excuse for not considering you? Do you have any warrants or possibly living with someone on probation or parole?

No they can't . . . unless you put your money and new husband's money into a "joint checking account" and can't tell which money was your original money and trace out the money which belonged to your new husband. However, in Idaho, all money which is deposited into a joint... View More

Unfortunately, Idaho has NO law of emancipation. Idaho law requires all kids to attend school through the 8th grade, so my advise to you is that you attempt to 1) mend fences, stay in school, it won't be too long till you're on your own, yada, yada, yada; or, 2) seek permission to stay...

The fact that her father hasn't had any contact with her since she was 8 months old, DUE TO A NO CONTACT ORDER, against the father, is problematic. The fact that he hasn't paid CS in 7 years is irrelevant to your question. Idaho has a statute regarding name change. It is found in Title... View More

If you are in Oregon, why are you worried about Idaho CPS? How would Idaho CPS even know about the birth about to occur in OR? In order to get your child back from Idaho CPS, you need to get a "case plan," and follow it to the letter. If you do, you will get your rights in Idaho back... View More

Parents often get in fights like this and I always tell them that they're welcome to change what they want and as long as they're getting along but if "push comes to shove," then the "default" is ALWAYS going to be to follow the last order to the "Tee."

Nope. If you have sole "legal custody," you have only 1/2 of the "bundle" of rights that parents have. The other "half" is "physical custody rights." You can file a petition to move, listing all the factors you believe are important and let the judge... View More

You don't need a special form; it doesn't matter in which state this person was served. All you need to do is get ahold of the individual who personally served the person and prepare an Affidavit of Service, just like you got from the Court Assistance Office for the Process Server and... View More

The facts unclear as to why you would be paying a significant amount of current child support if the child living with you; that would be a question a lawyer could help you sort out.

With regards to change of custody, that is question that a court would make the final determination. There... View More

You need to file a Motion to Revoke Guardianship.

Hello, I'm sorry that you're having this trouble. If your mother has not gained any type of legal custody over your children then she would be guilty of kidnapping.
