The Constitution does not authorize the Federal government, or any combination of states (including Northern states) to raise armies to invade, occupy or otherwise subdue or compel other states (including Southern ones). It does say that any power not specifically given to the Federal...

What is the name of your state?on Court TV the other day, and I was wondering. Does "Cops" reflect real-life police work? Also, I have a question about narcotics officers. The uniformed officers on that show are generally patient and hard-working, and put up with a lot of crap. But the...

I don't think bio dad ever got an answer, so I'm not sure why the thread was closed. This, I think is the answer: I think the answer is that the four years starts when the legal father was adjudicated - which was probably during the divorce, in 2002 (according to the original post)...

You wrote in another thread - But how often does this actually happen? This is why I'm asking. My brother's ex moved moved their child out of state. At the time, the court's orders prohibited her from doing so. My brother hired a lawyer, the lawyer scheduled a hearing, and the result...

Missouri. A while ago, my brother got into a dispute with his ex-wife over custody of their child. She was moving out of state, and wanted to bring the child with her. My brother desperately wanted to stop this. He hired a lawyer, and the lawyer scheduled a hearing. Unfortunately, the...

What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? TX I got this today, and I just had to share it. The funny thing... they're right! No more marriage in Texas! (A lot of men will be relieved about this.) Yes, I know this is the wrong forum, but...

Please excuse a question from the ignorant, but why do threads get closed?

Going into somebody's home without permission is generally considered trespassing.

Re: OK, I just had to answer this one Thank you. She did send him the sixty day notice, and he filed within thirty days (although it took a while longer to get it served. She said that meant it didn't count.) Hopefully the MO judge will look as poorly on what she's doing here as I do, and...

I'm doing some research tonight. It looks like 1.) the AZ courts are supposed to enforce the MO court's orders, and 2.) if he goes and makes use of self-help (my initial idea) he could get into trouble himself. But I'm not sure how realistic the idea of him going to an AZ court for...

HomeGuru: are all twenty-six thousand of your posts that funny?

What is the name of your state? Missouri. My brother's ex-wife served him with papers saying she would be moving to Arizona, and taking their child with her. He hired a lawyer and filed papers with the court opposing the move. She came to his house to get the child, and he told her he...

Federal case, or felony case? Burglary doesn't sound like a federal case to me. Is she in jail or out of jail?

Look and see what the law in Michigan is on assault - usually "assault" requires at least that you cause pain to the victim. Can you get a copy of the charging instrument? Find out where criminal records are kept (some version of the "County or District Clerk's Office) and ask for a copy...

A judge wouldn't just dismiss the charges at any kind of initial appearance where I live - or even listen to what anybody had to say about the facts of the case. But your situation sounds unusual. I'm surprised you were charged, but not arrested. Is that common where you live?
