Doesn't sound like it's on the up and up. What exactly do you think she should do about it? I assume she can go to the District Attorney's Office about it but you can be certain the ex gf will either flat out deny the accusation or say there was a misunderstanding.

I don't know where Hale County is but you should deal with the issue with an attorney from that jurisdiction.

Her unemployment compensation should have been taken into account. Check the bottom left side of the order where the respective incomes of the parties are shown. If it shows zero for her then you should consider seriously appealing to a judge but be careful not to miss the appeal period .... View More

Hard to know. Depends on the circumstances surrounding the original "error". Usually, however, a modification is applicable from the date of filing going forward.

You can file a petition to modify support with your Domestic Relations Section.

Best of luck to you.

Child support has zero to do with marital infidelity -- it's only about what the kids need to survive, and the primary custodian of the children will get that.

It DOES matter for alimony or spousal support, however, so you can raise an infidelity defense if she's trying to seek... View More

Retail theft is not one of the crimes that the custody court is expected to consider when making a custody determination. I wouldn't think that you can have the support stopped based on these charges either. Obviously you're very frustrated with the court system but these arrests are not... View More

Yes, they can agree but it would be in the context of their child being adopted by another person, usually a stepparent. Be aware that there is a specific form and procedures for accomplishing this.

If the abuse is *physical* abuse, you should contact the Children & Youth agency for the county in which your sister lives. Even if it's only mental/emotional abuse, I'd contact that agency and let someone know what's going on. Hopefully they'll open up an investigation... View More

Are you the person looking for a free attorney? If so, you contact the county bar association where the support case is and ask about their pro bono panel.

You can see if you qualify for the pro bono attorneys through your local county's bar association, but I suspect you will not if you don't qualify financially for Legal Assistance aid.

you need to see a family law attorney if you don't have one about getting the child visitation order amended.

You're going to have to ask a question.

You can ask when you have your hearing. It depends on the totality of the circumstances. As an aside, be forewarned that the brother can file for support against you and the father if he so chooses.

People take pictures of family members all the time. When they are your kids and you are just taking their picture for a memory of an event or otherwise, unless you have a custody order to the contrary, there should be no issue. If you are posting pictures of your kids on social media, it should... View More

Yes, you should still allow the call. If you believe that the manner in which these calls are being handled is unreasonable, then you will probably have to file a petition with the court to request clarification and perhaps some rules-setting.

Are you asking if your ex is wrong in refusing to deal with your husband? Maybe he's being unreasonable but he's not legally wrong. If you believe that it's imperative that your husband be permitted to run interference, you may have to go to the Court with that request.

You should appear. Otherwise, no one will represent your interests and you'll probably end up with an order that does not establish contacts/visits with your daughter

He can keep filing to his heart's delight. If you do find yourself in court, though, and you have retained an attorney to represent you, you may eventually be able to receive an award of counsel fees. You might also try bringing up that you keep having to miss time from work, pay a sitter, or... View More

He has the rights of parenthood if he can prove that which I assume he can. However they are limited, and if he has threatened you getting a pfa would be a first step, and you will need to speak with family relations and ideally a family law attorney about other options.
