The prosecutor needs to file a motion to seize this asset. You should receive a copy of this motion at which time you may file an objection.

It's unclear to me why if your married that your wife can afford a lawyer, but yet you cannot. You may want to consider hiring a lawyer and ask the court to order her to pay for your attorney fees. If not, you may find yourself out of your own home very quickly.

Keep in mind though once it is sealed, certain agencies still have access to this record, namely municipatlies, law enforcement agencies and the court involving domestic...

Your summons is to appear for a "show cause" hearing with the clerk magistrate. It is an informal hearing to determine whether there is reasonable evidence that a the crime was committed by your son.

What you want to do is raise some doubt as to...

Hello, The house was owned by your husband before the marriage and you were only married for 2 years. Therefore, it would likely not be part of the property division in a divorce. The court have a lot of leeway in dividing property however. Sometimes an arrangement can be negotiated involving less child support or alimony in return for a highter percentage of the property division. The fact you helped "maintain" the house does not help much in a property division.

Hello, I'm assuming your divorce agreement does not mention anything about travel abroad with your minor child. If you were to obtain a passport and you took your child to the Brazil without your ex-wifes written consent, its possible she could have you arrest for kidnapping.
