    Child Support

    You can go to the child support enforcement agency (or office of child support enforcement, or dept of human services; OCSE, CSEA, DHS, etc) in your state/area. Google it. If your ex didn't sign the affidavit of paternity, they will help with paternity establishment, although there may be some...

    Child support/adopted foster child

    Generally, the obligation is 17% for one child. There is a consideration for a prior obligation, and I don't know how the $600 payment would affect it. The following website has additional information, as well as contact info: https://newyorkchildsupport.com/home.html If you want to search...

    What info do I have to give...

    It depends on his court order. Some do specify that, others don't. It will also depend on whether or not your state's statutes address the issue.

    Harrassment and threats - TRO?

    I'm not sure how enforceable a TRO will be across states. You could retain an attorney to draft a cease and desist letter. It might be enough to scare him. Or, if you did take his sporting goods, you can reimburse him.

    Abandonment?

    WHOA! Nobody said any of that. You were given your LEGAL options. No one said anything about your parenting, and no one bashed you. All in all, you've been treated very gently. So, to answer your original question, there is nothing that you can do if you don't want to modify custody.

    Abandonment?

    Uh huh... Well, you've been given accurate legal advice, you've been advised of your options, you've been asked why you can't pursue custody and your answer was respected, and you were asked what you hope to achieve which you never did answer. That wasn't an immature response. That was a...

    How Much Can Legally Be Garnished From Disability Payments For Child Support?

    Nevada follows the CCPA limits on withholding: I think any (disposable) income, including disability income, is subject to withholding in Nevada. Since Nevada guidelines follow the Percentage of Income model, I assume that your monthly obligation includes arrears, or the child support order...

    Abandonment?

    Yep, that's the problem. If you don't want custody, and the grandmother doesn't care about the support, then there isn't a thing you can do. Out of curiosity, why can't you have custody? ETA: Please don't say it's because you can't have a child, because you already have one.

    Military and single parent

    As far as I know, the military does not require one to relinquish parental rights in order to enlist. However, I have heard that they may require a recruit to relinquish custody. Is there a court order for custody? Is there an order for child support? If there is no court order, perhaps the...

    Married but separated

    I think you'll find the forms here: http://www.courts.state.ny.us/courthelp/forms.html Hopefully, the other man is willing to acknowledge paternity.

    Abandonment?

    She has legal custody until someone petitions the court to change it. Apparently you aren't interested in doing that, nor is the grandmother. This also doesn't seem to be abandonment. Even if it was, what would you want to do about that?

    Custody-ASAP

    The father's and mother's rights to the children are superior to anyone else's. Since your daughter is losing custody due to her addiction, the father is entitled to custody. If the children lived with you or the grandmother, then there may be a very slim chance that one of you can petition...

    My Ex Sold My Car

    I think you can, but you'll have to speak with an attorney to be sure. You might want to ask about a separation agreement, although I think it would require your husband's cooperation. ETA: I assume there are no children involved.

    My Ex Sold My Car

    Get a lawyer to file for divorce, and have your lawyer get a restraining order to prevent him from dissipating marital assets. ETA: Have your lawyer draft a letter to your husband advising him not to sell anything else. It's faster than waiting for a court date, and it just might work.

    how to talk to children

    I applaud you for realizing that your children shouldn't be put in the middle of an adult situation, even if your ex doesn't realize it. I suggest family counseling for you and the children if possible on your weekends, or if you have an evening during the week. A third party, the counselor...

    I need quick advice on Emerg CustodyDE

    Sorry, I don't see anything in your post that would warrant a change in custody. If you had police reports of drug use or abuse, then that would be different. However, you don't have any real evidence to support a change IMO, let alone emergency custody. You might want to get a consult with a...

    please help ASAP

    YOU can't be forced to stay in Plano, but the court can require that the CHILD stays there. You will need to prove that the move to Lubbock is in the best interests of the child. Can you show that you've looked for a job with no success? Are you willing to provide transportation for the...
