Case was in mid 80s Baltimore County (possibly Bmore City). My mother had 'full custody' (according to her) yet my father all my life bemoaned the fact that 'your mother won't listen to me'. He claimed to be helpless, yet if he gave up custody (and paid support) he got... Read more »
All civil cases are open to the public. You should call the court (family law division) where the divorce was adjudicated and inquire whether they still have the paper file on such an old case. If not, you will need to order it from archives. Once it is at the courthouse, you can go there to review... Read more »
Is it still not complying with the court ordered payments for 6 of the previous 12 months? Also is paying partial payments considered complying or not since the full amount was not received?
There is no termination of rights unless it is done in an
adoption proceeding. Must show no support and/or no relationship for 12 of the last 14 months to adopt without the consent of the parent. See an adoption attorney to learn more about the process.
He controls all the money. We only have 1 car and wants to kick me out without my kids. I'm not leaving my kids. I have 2 that are still nursing.
Hire a lawyer, file first and get some safeguards in place to prevent all those things from happening.
You can move out without parental consent in 3 months. In the mean time, try to graduate from high school so you can get a job that pays more than minimum wage.
Probably not. Were they paying rent? Were they on the lease? Were they a tenant? or Were they just a guest that abandoned some property and would not pick it up when reasonably requested to do so? Was 30 days reasonable notice?

I recommend you consult with an experienced divorce attorney. My understanding of Tennessee law is child support cannot be ordered while parties are married unless there is a hearing where the Judge orders that in a divorce proceeding. The child support date would start the date the parties... Read more »

Adoption issues are something that you usually can’t do on your own. It would be wise to at least consult with an attorney who can review the facts of the case in detail and present you with the options, as well as provide you with direction for the proper course of action to take.
I lost custody of my child and didn’t have any representation in 2013 the year she was born. She was taken from me and I wasn’t in a great place to get her back. Now I live in Florida and own my own home and am married with two boys. She would have her own room and want her in my life I feel... Read more »
You do not say how you lost custody. If your parental rights were terminated then there may be no recourse. On the other hand, if 100% timesharing was awarded to the other parent then you can go back to court for a modification. Speak to a local family law attorney.
Good luck.
I don't want him to lose his career, but he has harmed me physically, emotionally, and financially throughout our relationship and I want it to stop and I am afraid of him. I believe that an order of protection would be enough to stop his abuse, but I also don't want him to lose his... Read more »
If you file for an OP in family court that is a civil matter and it will not affect his license. However, if he violates the order and gets arrested, then it becomes a criminal matter and if convicted of a felony, he would loose his license.
She's saying it's a violation of our custody agreement if I don't let them go to their house for Christmas break. He's not there, he's in jail and has been for 3 months. I don't feel comfortable leaving them there for 3 weeks without their father present.
A judge can consider a person in jail to have voluntarily relinquished their right to possession. Thus, making a person not in violation of a court order.
Please keep in mind what I am saying is general information and is for educational purposes only. You should hire an attorney to assist... Read more »

At the end of the hearing the judge granted me reasonable placement for both children. I understand that reasonable placement can mean many different thing but here is my question.

Reasonable placement upon reasonable notice is often a vague schedule and only works well if both parties cooperate. You need to attend mediation to negotiate a set schedule. If he refuses to mediate, you should file a Motion to Modify the Order or a Petition to Enforce Placement at which time the... Read more »

You need to look at the pleadings that were filed in 2014-15 to see what the determination was regarding paternity. Depending on what they say you may have a problem because you have waited so long to challenge the finding (at least in court). It is very difficult to recover child support that has... Read more »

Your husband may be ordered by a divorce court to pay other forms of support in addition to child support, such as alimony, health insurance, and household maintenance and support. You should not be limiting your court action to a request... Read more »

Yes, the court can order parenting time if you ask the judge to. You can ask that the court allow parenting time, but a 3rd party can pick up and drop off, or you can meet at a police station to ensure your safety.
