QUESTIONS

  • My boyfriend and I see his seven year old son every other weekend. I learned the child might not have medical insurance. In the Court documents; it states that the mother is responsible for his medical. The child has never seen a dentist and complains of pain when brushing his teeth. Is that grounds for neglect? I am a manitory reporter, I am worried if I let it go, I could get into trouble myself if child has injury or gets sick.
  • If a parent is in the military and their legal state of residence is Arizona, and so was the spouses and children at time of filing, wouldn't that give Arizona jurisdiction for child custody? Even if neither person had lived in Arizona for the past 11 yrs? Parent filing at the time was stationed overseas, but has since moved back to the states. The other parent (who has the children) resides in Kentucky, but at the time was not a legal resident of Kentucky.
  • My baby's dad lied under oath about how much money he makes during the child support case. Can he get into trouble for that?
  • I’m currently separated from my husband and looking into divorce we have two children one who’s biologicaly his and one which isn’t but he’s taken care of since 1yr and a half. I want full custody of my children because he doesn’t even live in the state. Will I be able to get full custody of them or at least our biological child and give him an hour or two of visiting time when he’s in the state ?
  • While I was with my Mom at her boyfriend's house in CA, my friend and I walked in on them watching porn in the living room. They didn't hear us come in so she doesn't know that I know. I told my Dad and he is trying to decide how to handle this. I want to know (and so does my Dad) if this is reason enough for my Dad to get sole custody. Now they both have joint physical custody. Has a crime been commited and how will the courts view this event? Thank you.
  • I am a stepparent. My husband's ex indicated that I can not sign permission slips for the kids to attend school field trips. I checked with the district and they said I could as long as my husband agreed. I always send a copy of the permission slip to his ex (she has never provided the same courtesy to my husband). I want to do what is right and legal. May I continue to sign permissions slips and pay for field trips or must my husband sign these slips?
  • As a landlord of a mobile home park. Can an applicant be denied based on criminal history? If not what can be done?
  • Our landlord overlooked a 4% increase in rent over the past two years and has issued an invoice for the past amount. Keep in mind he has issued invoices each month in an amount which we paid. Is the landlord allowed to charge an amt greater than the monthly invoices (ratification).
  • If I use a firearm in self defense and it is found my the authorities to be justifiable within the state laws of Arizona, am I immune from civil prosecution by the offender and/or his relatives?
  • I bought 2 porcelain figurines in 1/09 . They arrived broken. I agreed to accept insurance for restoration. Today is June 2. I still have not received money for figurines. Whom do I contact? The seller is from AZ. Her latest e-mail informed me she is keeping insurance money.
