Idaho has NO MORE common law marriages. Those were abolished more than 10 years ago. So this is more simple that community property law principles or even old, common law principles. Essentially you have a joint ownership situation. The departing partner is absolutely correct. He is owed 50% of... View More

Your question doesn’t give enough information to answer competently. Have you been sued for arrears already? Was the Support Order reduced to a money judgment? Do you have any paperwork concerning what happened 26 almost 27 years ago?

Generally speaking, child support is ordered by a... View More

An Idaho attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Until you're able to consult with a local attorney who could advise on state-specific law, nationwide it's usually up to the carrier and the PD adjuster's judgment with most claims today. Good luck

A Utah attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Until you're able to consult with a local attorney for state-specific law, the short answer in most places is that it's up to the carrier. For minor or moderate damages, they could go by estimates of a body... View More

The husband is guilty of manipulation and severe, emotional abuse of your sister and (probably) their son. Idaho, like most other states can give your sister a divorce for FAULT reasons, not just "irreconcilable differences" which is "no fault." IN a divorce, if your sister,... View More

As a litigator, what I constantly have to remind myself is that judges don't care how good my argument is to give my client custody, or how persuasive I am about the good things my client is doing etc., if it's not in the child's best interests. This is thE ONLY factor that the... View More

No set time, however, the insurance company will do its “due diligence,” and get their “findings” to all parties in “due time.” Most courts will not criticize an insurance company for taking too long, if there are questionable issues.

Here are your options:

1. Call Child Protection Services (CPS) and complain that the parents are unable to care for the child. They will conduct an investigation. Once that is complete, CPS will call the police and ask them to assist them in removing the minor from the parents’ custody.... View More

It will instantly VOID the Power of Attorney he gave the GF!

No private party may require a non-party to do anything. If you believe the father is requiring a non-party to obey your Decree of Divorce, then please disabuse yourself of this belief. This also has nothing to do with how far your child lives from the father. The ONLY considerations you should... View More

If there is a Lien against the real property, then it remains despite any number of conveyances. It is not released because the lot becomes part of a larger tract.

Your agent appears to be relying on a listing agreement that calls for her to be paid her commission even if the buyer she found is precluded from closing due to the contingency in the purchase contract. So there are two different contracts at issue. One is the "listing agreement" with... View More

Probably but you might be able to sue in Idaho. You should consult an Idaho lawyer with your promissory note or contract to determine where you can file suit.

Nope. By applying for Idaho benefits, Idaho has a "vested interest," in making sure that whatever monies it has provided you, are paid back. That means that whatever you and your husband thought you had decided, may be okayed by the Court, but the Department of Health and Welfare,... View More

Nope. "Legal Custody," is the right to decide when your son can get a tattoo or join the military or leave school, big decisions. Further, the Idaho appellate courts have said that you are "welcome to move, just don't take your children!" You must file and ask for... View More

In Idaho there are now 2 types of "stay away" orders. The first is a NO CONTACT ORDER. There is no way to have one of these against you, unless you've been charged with committing a Domestic Battery charge. In other words, it comes attached with a criminal charge. The other... View More

If he files in Idaho, he is required to list all of the places your daughter has lived in the last five (5) years. If he lies on the Petition, an Idaho judge will likely reject the filing. Plus, you are required to receive a copy of what he files and on his Petition, there... View More

You have the right to step in and be concerned. The problem with Powers of Attorney is that they are easily drawn and signed, by the weak and feeble. A much more stable, unalterable instrument to have when your loved ones need help, is a Guardianship / Conservatorship. Nobody is able to get a... View More

Murder requires the government to prove that the actor killed another person, intentionally (not while asleep) and did so without being provoked first, and with malice. From your facts, it doesn't seem like any Sr. prosecutor would charge "murder," only to be embarrassed at court... View More
