Talk with your probation officer. Unless told otherwise by that person or a judge, you are obligated to comply with all terms and conditions of your probation order.
I received a pre discharge notice regarding my Chapter 13 bankruptcy case and it spoke about the form listed above. Is this something I have to complete or is it not required? I don't want to miss anything that could prevent my case from discharging. I pulled up the dorm and it does not have... Read more »
Check with your bankruptcy attorney but you should not have to take any action nor should it hold up your discharge.
My gun is kept in a safe that they do not have access to.
Not a wise idea. However, he may be eligible for restoration of his gun rights - thus alleviating the problem. He should consult with a local attorney versed in that to determine whether he is eligible and go through the process before you two move in together.
I am currently living in an apartment with three other girls. One of the original tenants decided to back out of the lease and sublet to an individual who is no longer allowed at the complex from previous issues. This was not brought to the landlord's attention so the individual is continuing to... Read more »
If the landlord discovers that this person is on the property, they could have that person removed by the police and charged with trespassing. You'd need to check your lease for what it says about subleasing. Generally, all tenants are equally responsible for the terms and conditions in the lease.... Read more »
An ordinance violation is charged under local ordinance (e.g. - city, township or village ordinance). Statutory law refers to Michigan state statutory laws (Michigan Compiled Laws). The substance of a local OWI ordinance is generally the same as state law. The primary difference is local ordinance... Read more »
You can certainly apply for unemployment. Your question does not provide enough information to determine if you would qualify as a threshold matter. If you did, your employer may challenge it, in which case you'd be entitled to an administrative hearing to determine whether you quit for cause.
Their time (weekends, spring break week, weeks during summer break) is there an obligation for them to pay additional support? How would this be calculated or enforced?
No. Friend of the Court calculates support based on what the parenting time order says, not necessarily what actually happens.
My boyfriend has been in jail since January and has seen his public defender once and has only had his arraignment no pre-trial date has been set it's a felony charge
Unless your boyfriend is pending a psych eval, he had to have had a preliminary exam or waived it by this point. And at this point, they would have had what in my county is called a status conference or pretrial conference. There could be a number of reasons why those may not have happened, or he... Read more »

The former citizen... Read more »

You may be entitled to a share of the home's equity under the theory that you contributed to the home either in the form of shared payments to the mortgage, upkeep, maintenance, etc. The calculation would be from roughly the date of marriage forward.

The answer will depend on whether the business you work in is essential or if you are an employee deemed necessary to allow for others to remote work. If either of those two scenarios apply and you still want to stay home, you may have some job protection under FMLA. Before making a decision, you... Read more »

It sounds like your case is eligible for an income review. To get started, you'll need to contact your local Friend of the Court (FOC). They will ask for income information from you and your ex to calculate a new order. If either of you dispute the calculation, the court will set it for a hearing.
To the Court: Do not arraign on felony charge until an authorized complaint is filed.

My ticket says Misdemeanor but why is there a code violation next to number 1 under felony statement?
Thank you Everyone
That message is pre-printed on all Uniform Law Citations (tickets). If the box on your ticket is marked Misdemeanor, then the message about felonies doesn't apply to you. You would not be charged with a felony unless you have two prior driving under the influence convictions, or there was a... Read more »
We were both in other relationships at the end of our divorce and still are. Because this pregnancy happened so close to the final stamp I’m worried they will try and go back on my ex husband if my child’s father decides to bail and not sign the BC.
Your ex-husband is only considered the legal father of your child if you were pregnant during the marriage. If your pregnancy began after the Judgment of Divorce was entered by the court, your ex-husband will not be the legal father. You will want to make sure the baby's biological father signs...

I have a garnishment from my employer. They take payroll taxes off before determining disposable income. What's to stop me from just raising my additional federal withholding by a lot to make my disposable income too low to garnish and then get huge federal refund next year?
Edit: Mark,... Read more »
No. A creditor receives up to 25% of your gross income by wage garnishment. This is taken from each check. By increasing our withholdings, you would not impact the amount taken, and would reduce your takehome income even further. You should consider setting up a payment plan and consulting... Read more »
We have two children and need to appoint guardianship in the event of our death, as well as distribute our life insurance properly.
It sounds like you are a married couple and your plan of distribution at the first death is "survivor takes all". That being the case, utilizing death beneficiary designations or joint tenancy with survivorship title holding is effective to vest ownership in those assets in the survivor. However,... Read more »
My chapter 13 bankruptcy case is now closed and final disbursements were made. I am receiving a refund due to overpayment. My case status still says "discharge recommended" so at what point will I receive my discharge letter?
Generally 30-60 days.
This would be on public property.
Yes, quite likely. Generally, you may film or take pictures of anything or anyone you can see from where you are lawfully present. What you do with those images is a different matter. Although I would say that the law allows far more than what personal ethics and morals might.
