QUESTIONS

  • I married a 16-Year Old female (I was 23) last year legally with proper parental consent. I was curious to know what my guardianship/consent rights are when it comes to my spouse being served legal paperwork or court orders by anyone, including myself. She was not emmancipated before our marriage, and I've had to legally be there to sign on her behalf for reasons such as school signup and notarizing items, so I know that I have some consent.
  • IF AT THE END OF TRIAL THE DEFENDENT WAS FOUND NOT GUILTY FOR ONE CHARGE BUT FOUND GUILTY FOR CHARGE 2 IF HE WAS TO FILE AN APPEAL WILL IT AFFECT HIS OTHER CHARGE THAT HE WAS FOUND NOT GUILTY FOR AND HOW MUCH TIME IS ALLOWED TO FILE THAT APPEAL AND HOW DO WE CHECK TO SEE IF THE APPEAL WAS FILED
  • How does Family Medical Leave relate to time off for a work-related injury when the employee is receiving workers compensation?
  • My In- Laws currently have custody of my nephew I want to know how I can transfer custody and how much will it cost?
  • If the water heater in the condo unit I rent has been faulty & running 24/7 causing the electric bill to be MUCH greater than it *should* be (once it was finally checked out & dealt with the hourly charges dropped by 80-90%) how should I proceed re:bills? $200-$300 for 900sqft 2bd1bth before but *now* once fixed it's ~$80. I began asking the owner in late June/July to have someone check this out as it was not accurate (he insisted the electric be in his name--leaving me unable to speak to/arrange anything without going through him), but he dragged his feet for months until now here we are.
  • I had my daughter 2 months ago and allowed my, then boyfriend, to sign stating that he was the baby's father. His name is on the birth certificate but we have since found out that he is not the baby's father. What do I have to do to get his name off the birth certificate now. We are no longer together and the biologicial father wants to be on the birth certificate. What do I have to do?

  • I want to give my stepdaughter my last name, her biological father lives in Mexico and he hasn't been in her life at all. She's 10 yrs old and I have been taking care of her since she was 2. How can I do this If me and my wife don't know his whereabouts?
  • When a person passes away are the outstanging debts,like credit cards passed on to their adult children?
  • I live in an HOA where the board wants to change the CC&Rs to start requiring homeowners to provide deposits for several things, such as bringing in dumpsters. I reviewed Title 33 and the only place where I see they can require a deposit is for remodeling a main house (33-1817.B) in order to make sure the remodel complies with approved plans. ARS Title 33 is clear that the HOA can assess fines and assessments but, other than this one instance, it does not say they can require deposit. Are they allowed to do this?
