QUESTIONS

  • I am divorced and my ex took my children out of the state of arizona. She didnt give written notice of this and she lied to me and the children that she was moving some where else in the state what can I do to get my children back???
  • I found out that my ex has been working a different name so he doesnt pay child support what can I do?
  • My ex & I were together for 5 years, he signed acknowledgment of paternity when our daughter was born. We split up when she was 2 (she is 4 now), he has been paying child support for 5 months and was ordered to pay $17k arrears. He consented to step parent adoption before child support was ordered. The adoption will be final 6/1/11. Recently he started threatening to take me to court for paternity, can he?
  • I am a condo owner, I live in the unit and rent out my 2nd bedroom to someone. We have a lease, and we have also been working under the agreement that we switch off paying for things that we share, for example paper towels, light bulbs in the common areas, etc. However, she is now refusing to purchase a new furnace filter, saying that is a 'maintenance item' and is my responsibility. I think this falls under the 'damages due to negligence' clause in the lease. I plan to take the cost of the filters out of her last month's rent and her lease-end date be moved up accordingly. Is that legal?
  • Hi, I was wondering what my rights were and what my responsibility is. I purchased a truck in 2008 and traded in my truck I had to a dealer. the dealer was responsible for paying off the trade, they sent a check to my finance company and the finance company immediately issued a receipt pay in full and that the loan was satisfied. but the check had bounced from the dealer and the dealer went out of business. im not currently being contacted but it is showing up on my credit report.can I have this removed off my credit or can they make me try to pay this?
  • I have a 3 year old daughter. Her mother im not Married to was convicted of armed robbery & drug charges. Setenced 4 5 years in state prison. Was a violent crime. Question is do I have grounds to sever her Parentall rights? She left my daughter with a lady she did not know and unfit to care for her left her in dirty diaper and no spares while she was out committing the crime. She has been with me for the past 1.5 years. My Daughter has only seen her mom 5 times since Incarceration. My daughter has no recollection of her mother. She knows my wife of 15 years as her mother. Longer story
  • My sons girlfriend moved in with us when she was 4 months pregnant. She lived with us up until 3 days ago. She left and took our granddaughter..Shes now sayin that the baby that weve solely supported since before she was born will never step another foot in this house..The baby is now 10 months old. Do we have any rights for visitation.
  • I am getting remarried and the date is not on one of "my days" according to our current parenting plan. OF COURSE I want my sons standing with me, how do I modify our plan for this one time special event?
  • I bought land in September from Mortgage. There is a mobile home on the land. We didnt buy this home only the land. So we talk to the lady give her an eviction notice to move the house from our property in 30 days. She leaves the home and the home is still on our property. So we take her to court to move the home. She doesn't come. So the judge rendered on our favor. Does that give me the okay to sell?
  • If CPS has taken my kids will I lose Section 8?
