Needing some help on a legal problem


Posted: Jan 23, 2012

I am going to court Feb 15 to get more child support since I lost my job.  I live in OK if that helps.  Do I have to have a lawyer there?  What can I expect?  I would ask my lawyer, but he has given me a lot of misinformation.

family court should, I think, give you all the info you need. If not they should be able to point you in the right direction. :-)

Thank you! - nm

You do not have to have an attorney, but it is best you do. BUT, you losing your job WILL NOT automatically cause the father of the child to have to pay child support. I cannot speak for all states, but it is highly possible that the judge may ask if the father of the child is willing/able to take custody of the child until you are back on your feet and then you would be the one having to pay child support, although it would be a very small amount.

I put some warm material outside and made a little bed for the neighbor's cat. They tell me outside cat only but it is really cold here. I have a DIL who has offered a heating pad that could keep kitty warm but sort of concerned in that I would have to run an extension cord from my garage to the front porch. I would have on low heat but was questioning whether anyone else had tried this and if it worked. I sent off for a kitty mat warmer for a cat but it really lacked any kind of heat so ha ...

Should Polygamy Be Legal?Aug 05, 2011
If gay marriage becomes widely legal, with the idea that all people should be allowed to marry whomever they wish, what is the reasoning behind not allowing polygamy? Is it illegal for strictly moral reasons? If so, shouldn't it become legal like gay marriage? I can see problems for things such as employer-based health care policies not wishing to insure multiple spouses and children. So if universal health care, single payer system were to be instituted, would there be any legal re ...
