    Protecting house from divorce

    If the house is jointly owned, only the portion that you own is a marital asset; your mother's portion is her's, because it will be provable that indeed your mother resides there and contributed to the household (down payment, etc.), so that this would not just not just a vehicle to hide a...

    Protecting house from divorce

    In the hypothetical case that you actually buy/build this house: 1) You are still going to be paying a mortgage on the house 5-10 years from now. Your wife will not "get" the house in the divorce if she has no demonstrable ability to pay the mortgage. You refer to the child as "her daughter"...

    Sec. 545.423 Crossing Property Ticket Help

    Stopping at a stop sign is not the same thing as parking. If you had stopped to do an errand at one of the businesses, but otherwise drove the same route, that would be okay. You, however, were just taking a short cut.

    Harassment, Stalking, Misconduct What to do if a da is telling the police force not to enforce a state law

    If you believe the threat is credible, you can petition for a restraining order. It is more important to protect yourself and your family than it is to quibble about what the DA is allegedly telling the police. If a judge believes the petition has merit, that there is a credible threat against...

    Lost my wife’s ring

    Losing your wife's ring is not the problem. Doing things that cause your wife to have reason to call the police is your problem. So stop doing things worth calling the police about. And if you want to stay with your wife (assuming that she doesn't already have a restraining/no contact order)...

    Is this an international child support enforcement case

    That is not true. Read about the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act. https://courts.michigan.gov/Administration/SCAO/Resources/Documents/Publications/pamphlets/focb/PSA29.pdf Get your court order in Michigan. Follow Zig's advice. My ex lives in another state. The enforcement bureau in my...

    DUI and potentially illegal search.

    I think that's the point: the louse was so soused, he couldn't tell a cat from a mouse.

    Is this an international child support enforcement case

    I'm curious. Mom has established residency in Michigan. Why would she start in the ex-husband's state? Why can't she close the Chinese order and start fresh, petitioning for child support in Michigan, where she and the child (a US citizen) have residency, and have Dad served wherever he...

    Is this an international child support enforcement case

    However, if he appears to be voluntarily unemployed (or even underemployed, if voluntary), child support can be based on what he could be making, were he employed, based on his training/work experience.

    Mentally exhausted with crazy ex. Please help.

    Assault case, want to know if I have grounds to press charges?

    OP stated that the other party's sole injury was a boxer's fracture. A boxer's fracture is, by definition, self inflicted - it's not like OP intentionally used his face to beat his roommate's hand. Additionally, with proper care, long term complications are rare and usually minor. OP can...

    Child Support with Non-Working Custodial Parent

    Well, thank goodness for that! As an FYI for the future: until your husband adopts your children, his income is not an issue in assessing child support. An imputed income for you (what you could be earning) can be assessed. Thank goodness your children are physically safe from their...

    ADA issue? Can they sue?

    Bully for them. What do they reasonably believe were the quantifiable damages for their inconvenience? Ultimately, everyone went in, including the handicapped person. Were it me, I'd be more likely to have the lawyer write a stern demand letter stating the problem, mentioning the ADA, and...

    Relogious Discrimination In Work Place

    There's also driving for Fedex. It never hurts, though, to have a plan B. Plumbers can have lucrative careers, for example. Ditto for electricians.

    Relogious Discrimination In Work Place

    Perhaps you should consult a lawyer. If a lawyer thinks you should be able to get a lot more, and is willing to represent you on a contingency basis, it might be worth it. Otherwise, take the $5K. Note: get some vocational training. There are many jobs that are fulfilling; there's more to...
