You can't terminate his rights unless he agrees. Even if he doesn't see her for a year, as long as he is paying child support, it is not likely that his lack of visitation will be considered abandonment. You should be able to modify the visitation order to allow for a phase-in period if he...

Something's not right here. Why would the child become a ward of the state? The father doesn't have to agree with the mother's demands in order for the judge to rule in her favor. Why in the world would a judge make the child a ward of the state? I think your friend needs to post here. This...

Since you've been allowing him to take him with no notice, you can't just outright refuse him now. That would show a refusal to comply with the order. However, if you already have plans the next time he shows up, then that's just an unfortunate coincidence, and you would not have to make...

You have to be a resident of Ohio for at least 6 months to file for divorce, so you'll have to wait a bit. The link below has further links to the county courthouses in Ohio. You should be able to find the forms and instructions you'll need. There are also links for legal help...

Then I suppose you should explain.

An unwed mother has sole custody of her child. The father may petition the court for custody or visitation, but until then the mother has custody.

You will have to go to court to terminate the child support order. Take any evidence that you have that she no longer lives with the mother. You should have gone back to court a long time ago to enforce your visitation order. I suggest that you retain an attorney. I also suggest that...

Could be, although I haven't been able to access the moderator controls, so I've assumed that there weren't any other changes.

After I post a reply, there are 3 buttons at the bottom of the post: Edit Quote Quick Reply Apparently, some people don't have the edit button. :confused:

You can try to file yourself. I couldn't find the forms online, but you may be able to get them at the courthouse. Although you never had a hearing in PA, there may still be an open case. I don't know. It may not be a problem to transfer it if it's still open, but you should check that out...

You should get a lawyer, but here are some links that may help explain the process: http://www.nccourts.org/Citizens/GoToCourt/Default.asp http://www.aoc.state.nc.us/www/public/courts/meck/disk01/links.html#family It is unlikely that your ex will get custody since he is a virtual stranger...

If you can prove that he moved with you in July, then it shouldn't be a problem. Is his name on the lease, or did he change his address with the post office? Also, if he hasn't established residency in the new county, then he can't file yet. Why not just file first if you've satisfied the...

You'll have to go back to court, change the custody order, then request the visitation you want. No, she will still owe the back support, but she will be entitled to get an order for support from you. Probably very difficult. First, you plan to move them out of Florida when you regain...

That may be state specific. In some states, it is acceptable to live under the same roof while separated, as long as there is no longer a physical relationship.

Just posting so I can check it out! Mine still works. Maybe it's a gender thing.:D

Since you are the Primary Residential Parent, it sounds as though you do have a custody order. However, if you don't, I think you should get one, and request the relocation. You have a valid reason. Without a custody order and permission from the court, your wife can take the children from...

Although your loan was private, it may have been guaranteed. If so, then there is no statute of limitations. Whoever cosigned your loan will also be held responsible for payment. You seem to think that you shouldn't have to pay back your loan just because the lending institution will make...
