    child support

    Seriously??? In all fairness to the mother who's being bashed, it's very likely that SHE was in the same kind of "affianced, bespoken, betrothed, engaged, pledged, pledged to be married" relationship with the father that OP finds herself in now.

    Is there such thing as a "basic" divorce decree (TX)?

    Sounds like BS to me. She'd have to go to court to have him found in contempt. In what way did he not follow the decree? What's the difference between the 'official decree' and the 'basic', according to the ex?

    Unfair child support order

    Do you make substantially more than she does?

    No will

    I'm sorry for your loss. Without a will, as a stepchild, your husband has no claim to the estate.

    Consumer Fraud Laywer will not send documentation/ Stacy Papachristos IP assure/ scam?

    I'm not sure. If you purchased the images to make the toppers, then maybe so. I had never heard of first sale doctrine, so I did a little reading. I still don't know if it applies, but wanted to clarify for Fredrikklaw, just in case it does matter. So, did you purchase the images to make the...

    Consumer Fraud Laywer will not send documentation/ Stacy Papachristos IP assure/ scam?

    I'm curious, and it may have nothing to do with the legal issue, but what kind of toppers were these? Fondant? Or did you buy the images and make pick-style toppers?

    Consumer Law, Warranties Naivety Taken Advantage of

    This is an obvious question, but I didn't see it addressed. I suspect the answer is "No", but I'll ask anyway.... In your first post, you said that your daughter was with friends. Were they with her when she initialed/signed the documents?

    Big Mistake, Need Advice

    First of all, who in the original post needs to establish residency?? Second, your other post MORE than implied that the grandmother only has to wait 6 months before she can adopt. Both are incorrect. Yeah, that can happen, but nothing in the thread suggests that the grandmother is even...

    Worried about alimony.

    Um, in your other post you say she's asking for $49,000 total for 3 years. That's NOT half your salary if it's spread out over 3 years. I'm not suggesting that she can get any alimony at all. I agree that she won't. However, the way you've phrased her "request" sounds more like a buy-out to...

    Boyfriend's ex is with holding visitation rights to his son

    It sounds like the mother and father have been to court for custody/visitation and the father was awarded 4-6 days of visitation per month. Right? Now he's incarcerated and the mother is denying visitation to the grandparents. Your boyfriend can file a petition to compel her to release the child...

    Clarification of MN Statute ....help plz.

    My interpretation: It means that the juvenile status of the offender is revoked, as well as the stay of any adult sentence previously imposed. If there are any subsequent hearings, they will be in adult court. Otherwise, he goes to prison, i.e. "commitment to the commissioner of corrections".

    Consumer Law, Warranties Naivety Taken Advantage of

    The age of majority in NC is 18, not 21. The lease is binding, no parental consent was needed. Furthermore, it is not at all uncommon for unemployed university students to sign apartment lease agreements. All of my kids did during their years in college, and none were employed during the...

    my step-son wants to change his last name

    The phrase "One-Trick Pony" comes to mind. OP, To address the other question in your thread, your wife can certainly forgive the arrears in exchange for termination of the father's rights so that you can adopt, as long as she is not receiving state aid. The father will have to agree to it...

    Dept of Army Hiring..Illegal or just unethical?

    I'm fairly ignorant of employment law, so I'm just thinking out loud and hoping someone else will comment on my thoughts. :) The HR dept seems to be a nonfederal/nongovernment entity. Can they be sued?

    Do I get to claim my son on Income Tax

    This is only true if the divorce agreement doesn't address the issue. In the OP's case, her divorce agreement awarded the tax deduction to the NON-custodial parent.

    Consumer Law, Warranties What is the legal age to sign a contract? We want out.

    I agree that he has to void the contract ASAP. However, after reading the statute, I believe he will still be expected to pay for the time that he has actually been a member of the gym. Also, if he misrepresented himself as being 18 when he signed the contract, he may not be able to void it...

    18 year old brother threatening to cause emotional stress and duress to parent

    Unfortunately, your father is his own worst enemy. Too bad he hasn't learned to tell his son NO. There really isn't much you can do unless you are appointed the legal guardian of your father or his finances. However, if you can persuade him, your father can get rid of his current phone or...

    Florida, to NC Relocation of of State

    If these are any indication, it doesn't seem he would want it: and It's also not true that you can move the children simply because your decree doesn't mention relocation (if you were divorced in Florida)...

    Closed joint bank account

    That's a nice thank-you for legal advice. :no: That is exactly the advice you'd get if you paid for it. Apology in order!
