Govonor Kelly has cancelled school for the whole state of KS due to the coronovirus. We don't know when online classes will resume. It could be weeks before we know. Because of this, my ex husband won't return our daughter back to me, as it is written in our custody agreement. He thinks he gets more Spring Break because of the coronovirus outbreak. Will filing Contempt of Court and talking to sheriff's office be a good idea?
Child custody and parenting time, as well as child support, orders remain in full force and effect during the #Covid19 pandemic and through and stay-at-home orders that may be issued.
If a parent refuses to return a child to a parent as set out in the parties' parenting plan or refuses to abide by the parenting plan in any other way, a parent may file a motion to compel compliance with the parenting plan (contempt is an inefficient and cumbersome process that is best avoided-especially by self-represented parties).
The Kansas courts are now under an "emergency hearings" only protocol. Enforcement of parenting plan provisions fits within that protocol. At this time it is best to work with a knowledgeable local family law attorney rather than trying to represent yourself and figure out what to do.
Are we grandfathered?
Voters in the Town of Littleton Ma approved Mass General Laws Part I Title VII Chapter 40 Section 6D in 1949 which "allows" the Town to provide snow plowing services to qualified private roads. For decades 20 roads were approved by past Selectmen and received services. The statute isn't mandatory, the Town "may" approve.
This year two Selectmen who live on private roads not approved for plowing services, voted out the practice of providing services. The question is after 63 years of providing services has the Town created an entitlement or a grandfather issue regarding these 20 private roads that received snow plowing services. Roads who pay the same taxes as everyone else, who pay to plow some public roads that do not meet the road requirement that private roads are held to.
Residents have spent huge amounts of money to upgrade their private roads to meet the Town requirements under the expectation that to do so would mean a continuance of the snow plowing practice. Do they have an argument for the Town to continue this service.
401k Minor Child Beneficiary
My wife recently passed away, and
my 16-year old son was named as
one of the 401k beneficiaries. In the
paperwork, it states that in order for
a minor child to collect the money, I
must include a copy of the
document(s) authorizing me to act
on his behalf. What are these
documents, and where would I get
them?
