For the sake of alcohol-related matters, he is under-age. Don't mess about with definitions; it won't help you at all.

Yes, it's possible that you can end up in trouble. If you do, say nothing and get yourself an attorney immediately.

You're most welcome, danigrl2885 :)

Assuming you mean "how long", the answer is up in the air. It could be two days, two months or even two years. I strongly suggest you contact an attorney.

And further, mental illness resulting in confinement does not equate to Dad having no visitation. He will get visitation. It might be supervised, but he will get it if he wants. I honestly cannot recommend you do this alone. If you wanted a no fault and he agreed, fine - you can do it...

Small anecdote: Imagine if you will, a young lady wearing a flimsy skirt and 4 inch heels, climbing over snow drifts in Fargo, in mid-February, during a blizzard, trying to spread her loved one's ashes into the Red River. I swear I can still feel the frostbite :)

You won't be able to get his medical records without the aid of an attorney. You can request a psych exam, but you'll generally be the one paying for it and you'll also be examined. You might find that asking for a GAL (guardian ad litem) to be appointed will help you a great deal...

Oh good Lord. Let's move along. Okay - you are wanting help to file for divorce pro se (yourself). AJ provided some great links for you to read. Are you intending to file "no fault", or fault? Do you have custody concerns?

Full custody does not mean you can relocate without permission. Where are the parents? Can you please describe the situation a little? Are you wanting to move to another town/city, or another state?

Shrink - the OP is in the UK. Things are very different, and what happens in the US is not really relevant to the UK. OP, have a look here and start phoning people :) http://www.deedpoll.org.uk/CanIChangeMyChildsName.html

What exactly would you like us to help you with? Is this about custody/visitation? help us help you. And please don't be rude to the posters :)

You REALLY need an attorney. If you are convicted of a domestic violence charge, you are automatically subject to deportation and removal proceedings can happen very quickly. If you are convicted of a lesser charge (such as "simple battery"), your status is a little up in the air...

I'm sorry, your post isn't very clear at all. I'm reading that you are terminating your rights as part of an adoption, you were told you could see the child afterwards, and now the Aunt is not allowing any contact? If that's the case, you really need to speak to an attorney because for...

I'm in agreement - and AJ spelled it out very, very effectively Please also pass on my sincere condolences. It's never easy, and our path through grief can leave us feeling lost, bewildered, angry, and just about every other possible emotion.

The benefits include: Not living in a cell Being able to order takeout whenever you want Working hard and resolving not to commit any more crimes Much better clothing options The opportunity to volunteer, perhaps using your own experiences to help others In terms of state/local financial...

It never hurts to try and get the higher ups to do something! You've got nothing to lose - the worst they can do is say "no", right? :)

Unfortunately the law is on their side; you're not legally allowed to benefit from their error unless they say so.

Assuming that Mr. Beltran is trying to get custody or visitation, the court is saying "No, sorry". A few more details might help though.

Consider this a friendly warning. Unless you know the law where the OP is, it's better that you don't post at all. I assure you that UK laws are NOT the same as US laws.

Unfortunately your question is realistically far too broad to enable us to answer with any confidence. Is there an actual situation you can describe?
