Over the past month, the Coronavirus (COVID-19) has had a dramatic impact on the lives of Americans. Oklahomans have not been immune and have begun to realize a more significant impact of the disease as the number of those impacted continues to rise.
Ball Morse Lowe has seen an increase in questions and inquiries regarding the impact of Coronavirus on aspects of existing custody cases. With information changing every day, Ball Morse Lowe wants to keep you as current as possible on information that you will need to help navigate this unique situation.
With this in mind, we have created a short 15-minute video of current issues, questions that have arisen, and information you’ll need to evaluate your custody situation as it relates to Coronavirus titled “COVID-19 and Its Impact on Your Child Custody Plan.”
This is the first in a series of videos and webinars that we will be hosting at Ball Morse Lowe relating to Coronavirus and its impact on your family law case. The issues covered in this series of presentations will include issues such as:
· Tips for working with the other side to amicably resolve your custody issues.
· Shelter-in-place orders and their impact on your visitation schedule.
· The financial impact on your child support as a result of Coronavirus.
· Proceeding with your divorce or custody case when courthouses are closed.
Will I have a problem moving?
My boyfriend and I have been living together for a little over a year, and are jointly raising our toddler. When I initially moved to FL the agreement was to move back to my home state up north after 2 years (to return to my former job where I would retire and get my pension). I can't afford to stay in FL and lose money every year, and he knew this, thus our agreement. Well, time is running out and he is starting to balk at the thought of moving back north. Now I am worried b/c he once stated during an argument that he would not allow me to leave the state with his child. But this is not my home state, nor was it ever intended to be a permanent move. I hope to keep our family together, but I will be moving, with or without him. He is a great dad, and I don't want to take that away from him, but there is NO way I will leave my child behind, nor can I afford to stay in FL for the long run. My question is, will I have a problem moving back north to my home state, if we are not married, but he has always been there for his son? Will I be forced to leave my pension behind and stay in a state that cannot financially sustain me? We have not broken up, and I hope it does not come to that.

Photographer's rights to sell/copyright an image
I am a photographer and I would like to take artistic photographs of popular board game. Only certain portions would be shown in any one photograph and the game in it's entirety would never shown. Also, logos, etc. would not be photographed.
Can I sell these photographs on my website, as long as I don't use them to advertise my company? Do I have to get written permission to sell them?
Also, can I copyright them as original, unpublished works?
I live in Illinois, but this is most likely a U.S. law question.
Thank you in advance for your help.
