Me and my girl has dcbs involved over my depression mistake..if we make it to were she has 100% custody of our daughter what will dcbs do/ can do to me if I'm not in household no more???

Most likely even if you do give her 100% custody, they will still require you to complete their regimen before you can have contact with the child. You probably should hire the best family court lawyer you can and deal with it head on once and for all rather than giving her custody and hoping it... View More
I am 16 years old, i was taken away from my mom and dad 5 years ago at 11 for substance issues and more. My parents failed to get sober in the amount of time to get me back, therfore my grandma got custody of me. I am scared of her, uncomfortable around her, overall uncomfortable in my own life. I...

Probably your best course of action is to have dad file a motion for return of custody to him in the case where grandma was given temporary custody. That will get you before the court at which point you can ask to speak to the judge directly and tell him/her what your wishes are regarding custody.
Wife is deceased, has 3 children/heirs, my 2 brothers and I. His assets: $36,500 that he was about to inherit from his mother’s estate, and a 2016 Nissan Versa that needs transmission repairs in order to be drivable. My 2 brothers and I agree that I will be the administrator of his estate. Is it... View More

It appears you will not be able to dispense with administration because your dad’s estate is over $30,000, which is the maximum amount of assets that can be dispensed. Contact a local lawyer who can guide you through the process, which should not be terribly complicated given your description.
I am not sure if i put a stop on the ach withdraw through my bank for $30 and not contact my loan company or do I send an email to my loan company and tell them, and revoke authorization? I don’t think I am supposed to tell them i am going to be filing bankruptcy?

Don’t tell any creditor anything. Once you file, the deduction(s) will be automatically terminated. You don’t need to do anything. Consult your bankruptcy lawyer for a more detailed explanation of the automatic stay and termination of automatic withdrawals.

You shouldn’t have to file a petition. The automatic stay created by the filing of the bankruptcy trumps all anyway. Be sure a copy of at least the front page and the creditor section page of your bankruptcy is placed in the municipal court file.
The same attorney also prepared my late mother's will, which bequeaths the property to me. He has betrayed my mothers trust by not telling her what the "survivorship clause" meant when he prepared her will. He is also the executor and using his lack of disclosure to assist my father... View More

That is proper deed language in Kentucky. It means whomever is the survivor (mother or father) gets clear title to the real estate. What they may have thought or intended, however, is a completely different issue, which is why all real property transactions must be in writing as mandated by the... View More
my husband built a fence for someone he’s a handyman in another county. He should be served in his county since he’s not acting as a business correct? Can file a motion to dismiss due to lack of jurisdiction?
answered on May 15, 2024
You can file the motion to dismiss but likely Bullitt is a proper venue as the work was performed there and at least some of the evidence is there. Most likely will be heard in Bullitt County rather than Oldham.
I have the tax permits from the building and it's got a account number on it. How do I find the records to see what happen. Also if my grandmother filed bankruptcy and her trustee was the lawyer Robert Cochran did he get her stuff after she passed

Start with the Ky Secretary of State and tack down all their business filings. THen go to IRS and/or Ky Revenue Cabinet to obtain all tax filings. That should set you on the right path to determining what happened with their business.
I found out after looking up some court information that he put down he did not know where I live, but he lived with me prior and had to pay child support at time. Can I be removed off the creditor list? I have agreement he has yet to pay me for that was signed before he filed.
answered on Apr 20, 2024
It sounds like you are a creditor bc of the unpaid agreement but that should not affect you getting paid bc domestic and other support obligations are non-dischargeable. You might, however, want to report his fraud regarding where you lived to the US Trustee handling his case.
We arent sure what debts are out there. We got a notice from an Estate Information Serivce trying to reach someone about my father's estate. We havent contacted anyone. But i want to know if my mother and their home is safe.
answered on Mar 31, 2024
Depends on whose name the property is in. You need to run a credit report on dad and see what debts you can ascertain are owed. Until you determine exactly what debts are owed, the property is far from safe or secure.
I entered into a contract which i believe was breached. Even though I submitted a copy of the contract with the Complaint the defendant's attorney still makes statements like "the purported" contract.
answered on Dec 27, 2023
No, but simply bc th ou think he is feigning ignorance bc you believe the contract has been breached doesn’t mean it actually has been breached. He’s getting a different story from his client most likely. The language he used is appropriate.

If you already have sole custody, it is highly unlikely he is going to be able to change that bc the standard of proof is a high threshold. Additionally, if you have been living in your state for more than six months, any custody action should be brought where you and the child reside. You are... View More
I once was told that a friend was offered a deal if he was to plead guilty. He would receive no points in his record after he completed his assigned course. But three-days later, was called in for a hearing and was handed out a 90 days suspension on top of that.

What you describe is two fold. Part of the penalties (criminal) are administered and enforced by the Court. Other half of penalties (admin) are administered and enforced by Drivers Licensing. They are separate and distinct but the don’t give you this information when you are going through it.
file the intent to appeal? By Dec 3? Or by 30 days after the final judgement order which will be in January? Looking for a lawyer currently.
answered on Dec 1, 2023
You have to appeal within thirty days of the date of entry of the order. If it was entered November 3, your notice of appeal would be due December3. December 3 is a Sunday, so by rule you would have until Monday, December 4, within which to file your notice.
