How do you emancipate your 20 year old son who does not live with you?

I am thinking you are either stupid, or you dont understand what emancipation is....either way a 20yr old is already legally an adult and therefor is not able to be emancipated.


To Be Emancipated is for a MINOR(teenager) to be considered an ADULT before actually turning 18 so that the parents are no longer responsible in any way for said teen.

if the person is 20, it is an adult and you are not responsible for anything anyway....if you want to kick them out...just dooo it (legally of course)

Can any owed child support be taken out of year end taxes for a non biological child in Washington state?

Taxes, no; tax refunds due the obligor, yes. Not sure what is meant by "non biological child" - paternity must be established before any support is ordered. I have gone to Washingtonlawhelp.org. Past due child support can be taken out of Tax refunds for a non-biological child. (from a spouse of the non-custodial parent)

How do you go about writing a letter to Friend of the Court because the father of your child is harassing you?

A friend of the court writing is not appropriate. You need to take other civil action or practical actions to remove his ability to contact you: A restraining order, moving to an undisclosed location, public meeting places for visitation, and other possibilities abound. Record any phone calls you receive from him, take a witness with you for visitation.

Will you receive more child support with sole custody as opposed to joint custody?

You may since sole custody implies the child lives with that parent 100% of the time. With joint custody the child may dwell with the other parent for part of the time or with one parent all of the time with visitations for the other parent. It depends on the details and the state child support guidelines.

How can you obtain child support if they don't know if they're the father?

You need to bring a court action to establish paternity legally. Once you have supplied the information about the father to the court, it can order the proposed father to submit to a DNA test. Once paternity is established you can request a child support order and the court will set the amount according to state child support guidelines. The father can request joint custody and/or a visitation schedule.

Does the grandmother has the right to put father on child support if they are still married and the nother is incarcerated?

Do you have guardianship? It sounds like (from your question) you are raising the child not the mother or father. If this is the case you need to file for guardianship which will then award you child support from both parents (regardless of whether or not they are incarcerated). If the mother is seeking support she can go to the state and they will impute his income (guess what his income would be if he were working) if he has no college education they will impute the income at the rate of 40 hours a week at minimum wage. The state will then do all of the legwork to have child support assigned and make sure he is served in prison

How are child support papers serve in North Carolina?

The summons will be served by the sheriff department of the county where the non custodial parent resides.

What is nominal stress?

direct stress is based on the value obtained by dividing the load by originalcross-sectional area. That is the reason why the value of stress started dropping after neck is formedin mild steel (or any ductile material).But actually as material is stressed itscross-sectional area changes. We should divide load by the actual cross-sectional area to get truestress in the material. To distinguish between the two values we introduce the terms nominal stress and true stress

True Stress =Load/ActualCross-sectionalArea

Nominal Stress =Load/Original Cross-sectionalArea

In North Carolina when a father has no visitation does he still have to pay child support?

yes if the court orders you to pay child support the court also tells you whether or not you have visitation rights as well so if your advised to pay child support by law and the tell you that you have no visitation then your obligated to pay child support

If a father hasn't paid child support for 18 years and that child is now 42 years old what can that child do to get the back support?

First, you need to check your state's statute of limitations for enforcing child support orders to see if it's possible to do anything at this point.

AnswerIf you made it this far with out his support, why dwell on it now? Even though he should pay, let him be a part of your life. He probably doesn't have many years left on him. By making him pay, you would make him want to be distant. If you want to have a relationship with him, get it go. If you want money, make him pay.

How long can a parent go without paying child support in Louisiana if you can't find a job?

I guess you can go until you get caught, but generally it is 30 days. Once you hit 30 days your case is actionable. After a $5000 in arrears is accumulated, it becomes a felony under federal statute.

How do you determine which state has jurisdiction in paternal testing and child support court orders if both live in separate states and conception was in yet another state?

Typically jurisdiction is assigned to the place of the child's birth, but can be the home of either parent. If the child lives with one parent and no previous court proceedings have taken place regarding the child, then jurisdiction would most likely belong with the state that the child resides in at the time that an order is sought.

If parent is no paying support do the children have to go with him?

First thing..in Indiana...most courts view support and visitation as two separate issues. If the support is required through the courts the judge will ask what the visitation is at that time. However, if the non-custodial parent wants to get visitation without the custodial parents agreement, the non-custodial parent will have to file a request with the court and have a judge issue visitation. If there is no visitation order in place by a judge/court, the custodial parent has no legal requirement to permit visitation. I have dealt with this issue personally as well as my sibling, me being a custodial parent my sibling being a non-custodial parent. So I have seen what happens from both sides. Basically if it something isn't ordered by a judge/court, there is no legal requirement to do visitation or support.

When the non custodial parent moves to a different state has went 6 plus months without seeing child and does not pay child support are they considered a legal stranger to the child under 3?

I don't know what the term "legal stranger" is supposed to mean. The biological father is the biological father, period, regardless of what he may have done; he has all the parental rights of a biological father who is also a noncustodial parent unless they've been specifically removed by a court.

How do you get a chid support order?

I suggest that you contact your State's child support agency. When you get an interview with them, bring all the papers relating to your child support: birth certificates, acknowledgments of paternity, court orders, payment records, etc. Be polite but persistent. Good luck!

Do you have to pay child support in Mississippi when there is not a court order?

The law requires that both parents support their minor children whethera judgment of support has been issued by the court or not.

If a parent has not been supporting a child that is biologically his due to the fact there is no existing order, thecourt will not look favorably upon the situation when a suit for support is filed. In most such casesa judge will order back support be paid from the time the child was born.

So it is in the best interest of the father to makethe maximumeffort to financially and emotionally care for his child.

After a year of divorice can i go back to court for more child support?

Some other event needs to have happened besides the period of time. Many states award child support based on a percentage of income. You may need to adjust your budget and/or upgrade your job. Child support helps, but it is never enough to cover everything.
