My boyfriend passed away unexpectedly in a car accident. His mom has requested half of his ashes. She hasn't been apart of his life since he was very young. His father had full custody of him. We don't feel she deserves half his ashes
answered on Nov 3, 2018
His ashes are the only thing he had that he could will to anyone, but he died without a will, so the Uniform Probate Code dictates that his ashes would pass to his children in per stirpes. If he had no children but is survived by parents, his ashes will pass to his parents in equal shares. You were... View More
do we need a lawyer? he has had a clean record andis straight a student who made a mistake.

If you feel you have the legal skills to do the best for him then in your mind you should not spend the money and instead wing it.
However, if you were in that situation, money would not be an issue and you would hire a lawyer for yourself.
3 cords of wood were bought and the seller only delivered 1 1/2. Stated that the rest would be delivered the next day. It has been 2 months and wood or money has not been returned.

Although you don't have a writing, it appears that you have evidence that a contract was entered. It will now be an issue of forcing delivery. Please contact an attorney if you need assistance.

There is an affirmative defense called “necessity.” It requires YOU to prove that there was literally NOTHING else you could have done; such as getting a ride with someone else or leaving earlier so you hadn’t been drinking etc., so you can see that it is quite a hill you’ll need to climb...

You’ll need to go to the courthouse and ask them if they have electronic records that go back that far or not. If they do all you’ll need to do is make the request. If their electronic records don’t go back that far then they probably have an off/site that they’ll give you directions on... View More

I don’t know what you mean? Please re-read what you just wrote and submit it again.

The Idaho Rules of Family Court Procedure say that in order to begin a custody case you file a Petition. I certainly don't recommend that ANYONE do this by themselves. You need to consult with an Idaho attorney and let him advise you.
We share custody of a 3 year old already and he wanted me and still wants me to get an abortion I refuse. He left me because I wouldn’t do it.

Nope. He is nothing but a sperm donor at this point and can pack sand. When the baby is born he has a choice to make. He can either step up and declare his paternity to the child and immediately assume paying child support, or he can do nothing, have you let authorities know who the father is... View More

Have you tried Idaho Legal Aid or the Idaho State Bar to see if there may be a lawyer wanting to do some pro bono work? Short of that I would evaluate your interest in the case to determine whether hiring a lawyer might be worth selling your ATV or your card collection or your 2nd automobile or... View More

You are obligated NOT to commit perjury and it’s not the judge your need to tell it’s the prosecutor so that she can dismiss charges against your husband.

You’re not entitled to do discovery without filing a complaint first. Who would you sue? For what? Idaho Administrative Rules don’t allow you to get that information and the prison definitely wouldn’t open itself to scrutiny and possible charges if they gave you the private telephone records...

Why don’t you ask your mother to quit claim her interest in the property to you? Partitioning this property won’t answer the question of what money you might owe to your mother?

Of course you can. That is, if the officer you reported this to takes your report and immediately forwards this to the Asst. DA. Photos are only one part of a criminal prosecution. But without photos it will be much more difficult to obtain a conviction. Why didn’t you get any photographs?
I have a job for a year and I lived at the same place for a 2 years I've been clean I have my kids back. I went to the public defender and he said the prosecutor wants to put me on a 6 month rider. Do you think the judge will or let me get a interstate compact to go back where I am doing good.

If you were on felony probation, where one of the first promises you made was to obey all laws, and you ran away, absconded for 2 years, how would it be unfair of the court to convert your probation to a Rider? How does what you have been doing since you came back, atone for the running you did... View More
