The petition is in Idaho. I live in Tennessee. The petition says I live in Georgia. I intend to answer with objection to the clause that there are no assets to divide and no support to continue to be paid.

Correct. You'll start your 21 days on the day AFTER you sign the acknowledgement of service.
I feel I have been wrongfully alienated from my sons. They are now adopted by thier paternal grandparents, to which I know that my sons will have to seek me when they come of age. With that being said I feel they took advantage of me, had me sign my rights over unwillingly, and had alienated me... View More

Once the adoption took place, water passed under the bridge and there's no going back. Your desires to see them notwithstanding, you should not bother the paternal grandparents and NEVER make an attempt to see your sons. If they're curious when they come of age, they will seek you out,... View More
Police pulled over a vehicle with 2 individuals, the driver of the vehicles was detained on driving with out a license. A drug dog ran the car 3 times with no hit. The police told the passenger he was free to go, but then asked if they could search the passenger, passenger states a “terry pat”... View More

Kind of a weird answer for the passenger to give the cop I'd say, but I would definitely file a Motion to Suppress anything found on the passenger since the cop went ahead and denied a
"Terry" pat down and went ahead with a full-blown search without probable cause.

The Mother's Heirs-At-Law are now the owners of the Home by operation of law. Those Heirs have standing to file an Eviction Action for Possession. Hire an attorney to determine heirship and sue for possession.

Yes, and judges will approve because courts are willing to acquiesce (notice I didn't say "approve") to people "doing their own thing," I'd be lying if I told you that they're happy about it. When those "private agreements" don't work between the... View More

There must be two witnesses but I couldn't find a single, reported appeal to refer to. So I will just tell you that depending on how long you have been married you might be able to seek an annulment? But since annulment isn't guaranteed, but a divorce is, why not simply divorce him?

Of course it is "legal," but shouldn't be. There SHOULD be a law prohibiting both parents from slandering or saying anything about the other parent to the children. This is called "alienation of affection," and it does more harm to children than any other kind of abuse... View More
Can we just not have either spouse pay child support?
answered on Jul 21, 2020
This kind of amicable resolution is nice but it must be sanctioned by the Court. The Court will look at the agreement and determine if it's consistent with the support which the child would have received had child support been ordered. If the Court approves such an agreement it will look... View More

Real estate contracts are by nature, writings. As such they are governed by a 5 yr. Statute of Limitations. These cannot be extended and are absolute bars after the date that you signed a contract.

Whether the property has a loan or not is not the question. The Bankruptcy Court will NOT determine if a tax debt for property is "dischargeable" or not. Your bankruptcy attorney will do that and advise you. Section 502(c) says:
(C) the amount or legality of any amount arising... View More
I was never given a chance to defend myself. One day I just receive a call saying I’m fired for violence in the workplace. No explanation. I had to advance this to the corporate offices just to get an idea of why. Now, they won’t let me have my personnel file. I know Idaho is right to work,... View More

You're correct that Idaho gave up union protection 30 years ago and loves its "Right to Work" philosophy. You have no "right" to your personnel file, it belongs to the company. However if you end up suing the employer, your attorney will immediately get a copy of your... View More
Vehicle was advertised and sold as brand new with 3yr warranty. Manufacturer said it only has 2 years left as it was a demo model. This was not disclosed on the contract or verbally
answered on Jul 18, 2020
These are "contract-specific" questions. If the car was advertised as "new," be sure to write down any other, specific terms (promises) they made to you. Where did you learn that the vehicle came with a 3-year warranty? If this was verbally communicated to you, it will be much... View More

If you bought the dog then no, the dog is yours. If he left the dog with you to take care of for a period of time, then yes, the dog is his and he can ask for it back any time. More information is needed to answer this question.
Do i need to submit a document or file a petition to ask the judge in Idaho court to adapt the order that was placed in California which is the full custody?
She lives in NC and me in Idaho
answered on Jul 16, 2020
You need to go to NC, establish residency and file a Petition for Modification with the court and ask the court to give you the right to take your daughter to Idaho. You have NO right to file anything in Idaho at this point.
Paperwork says he is to refinance and take me off the mortgage. He has a business on the property now. Is the quit claim null and void since he has not done what the judge ordered?

I believe you have two options:
OPTION 1: he is in contempt of court for failure to do what the court ordered him to do. You can ask the Court to so hold and he could be ordered to serve up to 30 days jail if he refuses to do what he's been asked to do.
OPTION 2: a better... View More

CASA stands for "Court Appointed Special Advocate." It is a national program. Some states contribute to its funding, others don't. It receives national funding. If a CASA "volunteer" is involved in your case, it's because a judge appointed them to be involved. If... View More

i was threatened by a neighbor, saying he was going to shoot me, i told the manager and he refused to give me money back.
answered on Jul 16, 2020
Probably not. You have a contract that is between yourself and the Extended Stay Hotel, Inc. If you get a copy of that contract and read the fine print, it probably says that your failure to pay when due is a breach of contract and may not have any exceptions such as "neighbors who threaten...
