Legal Answers
312 Questions Answered
Q. Can I get full custody of my 3 year old daughter if the mother is taking, selling and manufacturing drugs?
A: You will need to file for sole legal and physical custody in court and to assert your rights as the legal father and not just the biological father. The mother will need to be properly served so that she has notice and opportunity to be heard and the case can move forward.
Q. I already have a child support order in place. How would I go about filing an uncontested divorce?
A: I'm not sure what your existing child support case has to do with your divorce unless you are wanting credit for the current order with regard to a new order that may come out of your divorce. If a divorce is truly uncontested then you would have all the proper paperwork signed and it would be filed uncontested. You file electronically in the proper county with the superior court.
Q. Is there a ga code of law defining a petition to apply for minors passport ex parte noncustodial parent?
A: I'm not sure how you are seeking to create a petition, as there is no such thing. If you cannot obtain the consent of the other parent you will need an order from the court. The proper complaint needs to be filed requesting the relief you are seeking in order for the court to give you a hearing.
