Too broad of question to answer effectively. Did you go to jail, prison, or both? How long? Were your parental rights terminated, or was custody just changed to the other parent?

If your parental rights were not terminated, you have an uphill climb, but you'll want to work with an... View More

Your son has the same rights as the mother. Both parents should be informed of all doctors appointments. When it comes to contrary forms of treatment, that's when things get hairy. Ultimately, a motion may need to be filed so the court can order a particular doctor, or in extreme cases, one... View More

The probation officer can't, but as Mr. Zichi indicated, CPS can. The probation officer can ensure that your son is not in the residence or having contact with your other children. This is likely already ordered as part of his pretrial release conditions; probation officers are charged with... View More

Yes. But generally the dependent portion of your SSI serves as the child support payment.

I applaud your considerable efforts to know and understand the rules of evidence; many people representing themselves can't or don't.

That said, the answer to your question lies in a complete reading of the rule. It's often said that the devil is in the details, and there is... View More

Your question doesn't lend a lot of facts to go on. Unless your parents have custody of your son by some court order, you should go get him, and with police assistance if necessary.

"They" are not doing anything. The child's mother made an accusation that FOC substantiated, creating this order. You being engaged does nothing; being married might help. But your relationship status has nothing to do with what the judge will find pertinent to changing this.... View More

There is no rule on that but you definitely have two different cases, even if it may be with the same judge, and so the holding on one case shouldn't necessarily affect the holding on the other. In other words, it's certainly possible - and happens - for a parent to have custody of one... View More

Good thought, but no. To receive the legal benefits of marriage - i.e. taxes, insurance, etc. - you need to be legally married as recognized by a state. Those individual registries are not the equivalent of legal marriage.

Probably not unless you can work out an understanding with him.

It can in some cases, depending on the issue(s) presented. And note that it's the plaintiff's burden to keep the case moving in that 90 day window you reference, otherwise the court may dismiss the case for lack of progress.

It sounds like you, or perhaps both parties, are... View More

If your question is do you have to let them back in, the answer is no.

It's not necessarily illegal to videotape on someone's property and what's otherwise in public view. You can tell him to stay off your property, but nothing stops him from recording from the street. If you feel harassed or intimidated, you can seek a PPO.

Sure is! Respond, appropriately, to his allegations. If he's filing, you will receive his allegations in writing; you may file a written response to them. In court, you will also have an opportunity to respond to any allegations made.

The judge's job is to assess credibility. Some... View More

Whether he has a leg to stand on is to be determined. The person asking for a change has the burden to prove it. From what you describe, I'm not seeing much reason to change this. That does not mean he won't try.

Best solution would be to get ahead of this and file a motion with the court to determine. I think you are in pretty good shape having had kids already in the district, and you actually living there. I don't see a court ordering a school district that neither of you live in.

What help or relief may be available depends on who "we" is. If you are not the parent to the child, the best help you can provide is to connect that person with a local attorney, so that he or she can effectuate their rights.

Not sure what your question is, but you have a right to an appeal, and hopefully you have submitted that paperwork to the court already. They will then appoint you a different attorney to see what the issues are.

You would not have standing to sue simply by you being present.

Nobody can 'sneak' their name onto a deed. Similarly, nobody can REMOVE a name from a deed without that person's active participation.
