He has supervised visitation but hasn't seen our child since 2017. Do I have to inform him of the move or can I just take our order and file it down there? Our order doesn't mention anything about moving.

Just to be on the safe side: I would file a Motion for Permission to move. If you move to UT without informing your ex, all you're doing is giving him ammunition that he didn't have before. Once you file your Motion for Permission to Move, and send the father a copy, what do you think... View More

Stipulations are "agreements." Agreements can be ruined by:
1. Arguing against it in open court;
2. Failing to draft and file a proposed DECREE or ORDER consistent with the Stipulation; and,
3. Acting against it.
If the party claimed the children in 2019... View More

answered on Dec 29, 2020
If Probate hasn't been started, YOU can start it. File a Petition to be Appointed, then you can send a letter to step dad demanding that he return property he sold or pay the value of property he sold back to the "estate"
Personal represenative surviving spouse has sold numerous personal property items never recorded in probate

Yes. What you are alleging is "malfeasance" and subjects the PR to removal. Make sure and get your ducks in a row before asking a judge to remove a PR.

When my ex and I got divorced, I signed a quitclaim deed on the home and gave her everything. In the judgement for divorce, it states that she shall refinance the property within 2 years. We are approaching the 2 year mark and she has not refinanced. What legal options do I have?
answered on Dec 16, 2020
I would send her an email and ask what the problem is and why she hasn't refinanced the property yet? When she answers you, listen to what she says carefully. "Contempt" is the "willful violation of a court order." If she has tried and her credit shows that she has, yet... View More

As an "addendum" to my earlier advice, let me say that you are WELL within your rights to sell a dog that you own, for as much money as you can get. Of course, without seeing the actual agreement, there is no way to determine what "conditions," you and the previous owners... View More

Nope. You were the first signer on the LOAN, right? Your name is or is not on the title? If your name IS on the title as a "co-owner," then you have as much right as he does to possess your car. However, how the car is titled is a big deal in Idaho. If you haven't paid the car... View More
