Is she considered emancipated, leaving at 18 for the military?


Hello. Thanks for your question. If you have another child you are paying support for, you will need to file a petition to modify child support so the court can recalculate support for any remaining children. If you only pay support for the child who is entering the military, you can try filing... Read more »
They have all necessary papers to prove I am personal representative. My parents’ estate is receiving stock dividend checks and the credit union is rejecting them. They refuse to deposit anything saying that I cannot transact on the account. It is difficult to get everything changed over to the... Read more »

Try contacting the issuers of the stock dividend checks and tell them that your parents are deceased. Provide death certificates and letters of administration and get them to re-issue the checks to you as PR of the estate(s) and then you can deposit the dividend checks to the estate account.

Only if you go back to court and modify support. Also, the child does not make the decision who who he wants to live with.

Assuming this is a traffic ticket and no great bodily harm was caused, it is highly unlikely you will be detained for your failure to appear if you go to court and answer for the bench warrant. Actually, I would call the court house and ask them and they most likely will tell you the amount of the... Read more »
He is 50 with a 15 year old. Has not been employed for a couple of years. Brook wood is trying to move him as soon as they can find a facility that will take him without insurance, may even be out of state. He is not getting the physical therapy he needs.

If you have clear evidence, it can go very quickly. Mine took less than a month. I am not taking clients, but I am sure you can find a... Read more »

Your problem is this, past due child support payments are final judgements each month they remain unpaid. A court does not have the power relieve you of that. You may be able to get relief from some of the interest due, but the fact that you didn't pay while in prison does not help. You can... Read more »

My brother has ALS. He cannot sign the POA back page. He signed the 1st page in 2019. It was notarized and we just simply skipped right over the back page signature. Is it valid?

It is difficult to answer this question without seeing the instrument itself, but as a general rule an in signed POA is not valid. If your brother still has mental capacity, however, he can “sign” a new one using a legal process whereby he authorizes and directs someone else to sign for him. An... Read more »
