Legal Answers
2 Questions Answered
- Q. How do my wife and I as managing conservators act on a final order and enforce an agreed upon action?
- A: The answer to your question will be heavily dependent upon the language in the order. Some orders will spell out what happens if a drug test is refused (it’s often treated as a positive), and will clarify possession terms based upon testing. I would encourage you to read the order carefully and consult with an attorney to review the specific language. If a court has ordered something to occur (payment of child support, drug testing, etc.) and the other party doesn’t follow the order, an enforcement action may also be appropriate, depending upon the language in the order.
- Q. Can an adult change an error to their birth certificate in terms of Date of Birth if they discover that it was wrong?
- A: There is an amendment form that can be submitted to Vital Records. It’s a bit of a process, and you will need supporting documentation.
