In my final judgment,the Judge ordered my ex to pay me over $100,000 in Epstein credits. Can I enforce payment of this money?

Asked by a user in Los Angeles, CA - about 1 year ago.

Although the debt may be hard to collect at this time, you can file and record an abstract of judgment in the county where your ex resides. The retardation will become a lien on any real property that she may acquire in the future. You can renew the judgment every few years and add the interest to the amount owed., and then record the renewed orders. These procedures do not cost much money, and if she gets any property in the future, it will pay off. I have had people wanting to get a loan...

Can my separated spouse have my friend evicted from a property we both own?

Asked by a user in San Francisco, CA - 5 months ago.

Generally speaking, there has to be a good economic reason to have somebody removed from the hands. If you are in so possession of the condo, your ex will have to show that. Some waste to the property. Another potential reason to have the court remove your friend from your condo would be that there is some problem or detriment regarding the custody issue. If your wife but to take action to have your friend removed, it would have to be in the Family Court action as when the dissolution action...

Spouse does not refinance, can they sue me for equity stake?

Asked by a user in Folsom, CA - 5 months ago.

The answer depends on the language of the marital settlement agreement or judgment. If the house were awarded to your ex spouse without condition, then there's there is little you could do. However, if the orders state that your ex-spouse must refinance by a date certain, and he or she has not done so, then you could ask the court to order the refinance, or, in the alternative, ask the court to order the property sold.

My 19yr old daughter is a full time college student and resides with me full time. I solely support her. I pay support to my ex

Asked by a user in Folsom, CA - 5 months ago.

since you do not have a legal obligation to support your 19-year-old daughter who is not a full-time student in high school, I am afraid that you cannot use the fact that you support her as a hardship for guideline child support. Was there any agreement with the child's other parent to share in the cost of the child's higher education. If there was such an agreement, then you may ask the other parent to reimburse you for some of the cost of your 19-year-old. Guideline support is very...

My ex-wife currently receives spousal support from me. Due to her mental illness she is now living with her father.

Asked by a user in Sacramento, CA - about 1 year ago.

Depending on the language of the last support order, each party to a dissolution action, where there are support orders may, ask the other party each year to fill out an income and expense declaration without any motions pending. There is a specific form for this request. Ask the other party to complete the form, and when you get it compare the expenses, etc, with what they were at the time of the last order. If there is a significant change, then you can file for a modification based on...

How do i go about filing papers to reduce child support after the kid turns 18 in california

Asked by a user in Fountain Valley, CA - over 1 year ago.

I think that it would be safer to file a motion to terminate child support. The obligation may not be over when the child turns 18 if the child is a full time student in high school and has not as yet turned 19. A motion is even more important if there is a wage assignment for support.
