If the deceased was not married and has adult children, the legal entitlement to the cremated remains typically falls to the adult children. In many jurisdictions, adult children are considered the next of kin and have the right to make decisions regarding the disposition of the remains. However, specific laws can vary by state or country, so it's essential to consult local regulations for precise guidance.
What does signing over custody means?
Signing over custody means that a parent or legal guardian voluntarily relinquishes their legal rights and responsibilities regarding the care and upbringing of their child to another individual or entity, such as another parent, relative, or the state. This process typically involves legal documentation and may occur in situations such as adoption, divorce, or when a parent is unable to provide adequate care. Once custody is signed over, the new custodian has the authority to make decisions regarding the child's welfare, education, and overall upbringing.
What does I am my fathers daughter mean?
Oh, dude, it's like when you say "I am my father's daughter," you're basically just stating the obvious - that you are the offspring of your dad. It's a fancy way of saying you inherited some traits from your old man, whether it's his sense of humor, his love for dad jokes, or his ability to fall asleep on the couch within minutes of sitting down. So, yeah, it's just a fancy way of saying, "Yep, I'm related to that guy."
Can a 17 year old have guardianship revoked from their guardian?
A 17-year-old may be able to have guardianship revoked from their guardian, but it typically requires a legal process. The minor would need to petition the court, providing evidence that the guardian is unfit or that the guardianship is no longer in the minor's best interest. The court will consider factors such as the guardian's behavior and the minor's well-being before making a decision. Legal advice is often necessary to navigate this complex process. Take help an attorney (561-444-0131) for legal advice.
- The only reason a father would be unfit to see his daughter is if he was an alcoholic; drug user; has committed a crime; has served time in prison; has a wild lifestyle with strangers constantly around. As far as your ex husband and yourself having your differences this does not consitute for deeming him an unfit father. The children should always come first and to that child the two people divorced are still 'mom and dad.' If you feel for any reasons above he is an unfit father then you need to see a lawyer and go to court to get full custody of your daughter.
- When your parents got married and had you they are your biological parents (he is your real dad), but once your parents divorced and your mother remarried then the man your mother married is your stepfather and your biological father is your real father. If you get along with both your father and stepfather consider yourself lucky. You can also have two dads if you are adopted by a family and you may not know who your real dad is, but your adopted dad who loves and cares for you is really your dad although not your birth father.

What is the law on child abandonment in Florida?
What is the time line for child abandonment for a non custodial parent? My husband was given temporary full custody of a three year old and five year old in December 2008. The mother was only allowed to have supervised visitation. She maintained off and on contact until May 2009. She has not called or made any attempt to contact the girls since May. How long do we have to wait to file abandonment?
What is the minimum legal age to stay home alone in California?
Legal Age There are very few states in the U.S. with legal minimum ages for children home alone, but many state agencies have published guidelines. Georgia, Illiniois, Maryland and Oregon are a few of the states with specific ages mentioned in their laws.
12 years of age appears to be the most common recommendation. Below in Related Links is an article entitled Home Alone Children Legal Age Limits which provides a guideline listing by state. A California agency representative suggests that 8 year olds and over can be left at home for up to several hours (usually after school before a parent gets home from work). This site also provides a state by state comparison with references.
How can you get your wife to stop spending money?
It is something you have to do together as a couple and set boundries and a budget. It is important that it is a group decision otherwise it can destroy your relationship. Dave Ramsey is on a radio show where I live and that man could work wonders for you he has a book you might be interested in.
If you have full custody can you leave the state?
- Last year I took my daughter on vacation with me to Mexico. Her father and I were never married and he has no legal custody or visitation, but it was necessary for me to have a notarized letter of consent stating that he was okay with me taking her on vacation. We also both needed to be present for her to acquire a passport.
- Yes you do need the other parents permission either written or in present. My sister-in-law and her single mother friend tried to take her three year old daughter on vacation to Costa Rica and were denied.
- I think it all depends on the country, I am going to Dominican Republic to visit family and I called the consulate and they told me that as long as I have a passport I can take her since I am her mother and have basically full custody.
- Even if it weren't out of the country you need a notarized paper stating you have permission from the other parent to travel with your son/daughter and they have to sign the paper.
- Canada is reported to be more strict than the US about children traveling alone with one parent often asking for custody documentation or parental consent forms.
The anecdotes offered above are very helpful. The advice is the same for either a mother or father traveling alone with a child. If you are traveling alone with your child you should be aware that concerns about parental abductions have made border officials more vigilant when they find a child traveling alone with one parent. You should be prepared to produce documentation such as a letter of authorization or travel consent signed by the other parent. In some countries you may not be asked for it. In others, you will be detained until your authorization can be reviewed by officials. The child may even be questioned about the other parent. You should also note that you may have trouble re-entering the country of origin.
In the United States new requirements have been added in response to child abductions and trafficking. To get a passport your child must apply in person with:
- one or both parents depending on the circumstances;
- birth certificate;
- with one parent who must submit the second parents notarized statement of consent;
- adoption decree;
- court order establishing sole legal custody;
- court order specifically permitting travel with the child;
- judicial declaration of incompetence of the non-applying parent;
- death certificate of non-applying parent
A parent traveling abroad with their child must provide U.S immigration officials with a notarized consent from the other parent for the child to travel abroad. You should consult an attorney to have the proper documentation prepared.
Can a wife petition for child support if still married and she lives with another man?
She is committing adultery and involving her children. It is unlikely the court would support her actions while she is still married. The court may award custody to their father. She should file for divorce if she wants child support.
Is there a law against keeping a child from seeing his parent on court-ordered visitation rights?
Yes. The custodial parent is required to obey the court order or face sanctions that may eventually include loss of custody. The non-custodial parent must stay on top of the situation and file a motion for contempt of a court order. It is extremely difficult to contend with a non-compliant parent and the most difficulty is experienced by the child. Courts do not take that type of behavior lightly.

Can a child in Connecticut decide to end visitation with non-custodial parent?
No, this decision is made by the judge, not the child or the parents. However, if you or your custodial parent feels it is not safe or if the non-custodial parent is emotionally abusive, etc., then you can have your attorney file a motion to have visitation stopped. But it will not be granted unless you have very good, valid reasons for requesting no visitation with the parent.
But before doing something this drastic, I suggest you examine your reasons for wanting to stop the visitation, and be very honest. If you want to stop visitation for the wrong reasons, this may very well cause irreparable damage between you and your other parent. And if that parent loves you and is good to you, think how devestating that will be to them.
Also, if the parent with whom you do reside is encouraging you to not see your other parent anymore, and if the other parent is good to you, then you need to go by what you feel and know, not by someone who may just want revenge on the other parent.
Can your wife stop you from seeing your children prior to a divorce?
Not if the father is doing his fatherly duties for the children, and causing the children no harm or pain. But if he is then yes, also if she sees the father unfit and suspects harm is being done in which case it should be taken to court.
What is the youngest age a child can testify in a Oklahoma family court?
a child in tribal custody has asked to speak with the judge of the tribe. Does the child have the right to do that?
Where can you put yourself up for adoption?
There are two options. The child can be reliquished to the care of juvenile social services and become a ward of the court. Or a private attorney who specializes in adoption and is registered as such with the court of jurisdiction. Some states allow private adoption agencies which are licensed and bonded by the state, to assist both the adoptive parents and the parent(s) who is giving up custody.
Is it ok for a dad to sleep with his 9 year old daughter?
If you mean in a sexual way absolutely not!
If you mean sharing a bed until you have fixed her a bed of her own because you just moved in after the divorce it's OK for a night or 2. I would recommend you get a mattress on the floor to sleep on while she's there though. She will need her own space if this will be your new home. A bed of her won is at least what she can expect I think.
