The fact you were "told [you] mite be the father of a 1 year old boy that had been in children services" doesn't give you any rights. You need to determine how you want to proceed.

What do you mean by "legal document?" A notarized document is just that, a " notarized document." I can sign my grocery list and have it notarized. That proves I signed my grocery list, nothing more.

When i got accepted to college and i asked my dad for my college fund he told me no. What can i do? (The divorce papers have account numbers of the fund)
answered on Nov 2, 2023
He said "no" or he said he didn't set up the account? College funds are generally trust funds controlled by the Trustee who generally provides in the Trust fund document that he has discretion. That would prove a difficulty especially since you don't want to antagonize him.... View More

If I'm being held in contempt for not providing all the ATM withdrawal dispositions. Why can't I ask the same?
answered on Oct 4, 2023
A lie detector test isn't worth a thing. You can request information as well. I am sorry, but it doesn't seem you have a good grasp of what is happening. The court has information on its website and the law library is a great resource. Obviously, an attorney would be advantageous.
I have text messages as evidence along with voice recordings. I was wondering if I need to send the messages in as exhibits online or if I can just bring them to court with me
