I am assuming that the "marital home" was in the husband's name alone. Yes. In Massachusetts there is a provision where a spouse can waive the will and take her share as if there was no will. I am sure other states have the same provision, at least I hope so. Those statutory provisions make it difficult for a man to disinherit his wife.
Of course. If they're in the US, for example, they have the right to free speech, the right of assembly ...
However, I assume that's not what you were asking. The answer to the question you were trying to ask is "find a lawyer, Charley"; it's really too complicated to give a yes or no answer without having all the details.
can't with the permission of the other parent or the court.
No.No.No.No.
As a step parent you do not have rights to your partners children unless you adopt them.
Why should adult children have any rights to the personal gains of a parent, unless they worked to add to them?
Not if the other parent has joint custody and/or visitation rights.
Yes. Unless power of attorney was granted to the caretaker children, the parent retains all their rights as an adult.
It depends if there was a will or not. Step-children have no rights to the estate of a step-parent unless specifically named in the will. If there was no will, the estate is typically divided between the spouse and the children. Check the laws for your state or jurisdiction.
children's rights are the human rights of children :D.The statement above doesn't make sense to me.But i think children have the right to do anything as long as it is legal, allowed by a parent or guardian and allowed for their age.For Example they can go on social networking sites underage if the parent or guardian lets them.
Biological children can be eligible for survivor benefits when are of minor age and a parent dies. The termination or relinquishment of parental rights does not always relieve the requesting parent of financial obligations to his or her children, unless those children have been legally adopted. Whether or not a minor child qualifies for SS or SSI benefits would depend upon the individual's circumstances.
Yes or if the child is harmed the step parent can get full custody YOLO
You as the parent can go wherever you want but if the child is going with you and the other parent have visitation rights or share custody, you will need their permission if leaving the state or country.
The simple answer is NO, step parents do not have legal "rights" regarding their step-children. In order to have legal parental rights the step parent must legally adopt the children.
