Will i get in any trouble if he tells the court that he takes all responsibility. It is small claims court
A Wisconsin attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. It's difficult to say what could happen. He could agree to accept all the responsibility with the other side, but he cannot control whether violations are issued for an uninsured vehicle - that's in the... 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. If i was awarded reasonable placement , does that not mean in my own home? The other parent is trying to control the... Read more »
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 »

Probably not, but you should have your employment agreement / bonus agreement reviewed by an attorney in your area who practices employment law to be sure. There may be other terms in your agreement that are relevant to this determination.
Yes, but the other parent will be filing on his behalf as guardian.

To be able to act as a POA, it must be activated. That means two physicians declared your parent to be incompetent. Ask your brother to show you the activation document signed by the physicians. If he can not produce that document, you may wish to consult with an attorney to file a petition to... Read more »

She had a car loan that was upside down. It has been repossesed already. The bank is saying we (me & my 2 brothers) will owe the difference of what they get at auction & what she owed.

She has a fiancé and another baby with him which I’m happy for her. I don’t even get mad at her what she has... Read more »
I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but if your question is whether you have a right to see your son even if you have a girlfriend, the answer is YES. There are many factors that go into a custody/placement determination, but a good lawyer can help you determine what actions you can take.
my father gave me $14,000 so i could take care of things i needed to in my life. At this time of my life i couldn't open a bank account because of some decisions i decided to make in the past. So i had the money deposited into a so called "friend's" account that i thought i... Read more »
I am sorry to hear about your loss. It is terrible when someone we believe to be a friend turns around and takes advantage of us. You have a right to sue this person, but you will have trouble proving your case if you don't have anything in writing. If this person was mean enough to take... Read more »
After closing on a home, the county contacted me saying the property lines for the home I just bought are incorrect. After speaking with the county, the title company contacted the county about this issue. However, the title never notified myself or the seller about this issue prior to closing.
I would carefully examine your title insurance policy on the home to see if the issue was discovered during the title search and discuss this issue with a real estate litigation attorney in your area. The title company should have run a title search before issuing the title insurance. If the issue... Read more »
Are they consecutive weekends?
If the order says 2 out of 3 weekends, most of the time that would be are rotation. Parent A has two weekends, then Parent B has the weekend, then Parent A has two weekends followed by Parent B having the weekend.
How would the placement schedule work.(what does it look like?) Is it 2 weekends a month? What weekends? Are they consecutive?
Your question is not clear. Are you asking how it affects a child support order or percentage of placement?
The amount is intended to be a gift. Would he need to pay taxes on the amount over $15,000 or could this be claimed under the lifetime exemption? If it’s taxable, would agreeing to repay the amount upon sale of the property turn it from a gift to a loan?
Currently you can gift up to $15,000 per person per year, without filing a federal gift tax return. Therefore, your proposed gift of $40,000 from your brother would be over this amount. He could gift you $15,000 this year and $15,000 in 2021 without filing a gift tax return, or if he is married, he... Read more »
