My boyfriend’s ex-wife and his 2 children live in Killeen Texas, she wants to give him custody, because she can’t handle them on her own. We live in Florida, they (the children: ages 5 and 9) will be going to school here this year, and by the end of the school year we want to have all the legalities worked out. Since Texas has jurisdiction we’re not sure how to handle all this. ANY help would be appreciated! Even if it’s just a link to a website that could give some answers. Thanks.

How long will it take for divorce to be finalized w/ default judgement?
Filed Under Law Ethics | 2 Comments
I’m in Florida, I *think* my ex is in Oklahoma. I filed for divorce, the papers were served to him on May 3rd, and he had 30 days to respond. He did not respond, so my lawyer is now taking the papers to court to file a default judgement against him. What will happen next? Will I get what I asked for in the papers? How long will it take?
By the way, there are two children involved, I have custody (he’s had no contact in 4 months or more), there’s no joint property (just some debt).

Here’s a complicated one.
My daughter on the last day of Jan 2006, ran away from home. She said she didn’t want to come home, so the State decided to keep her (no abuse, she just didn’t want to come home). She’s since been diagnosed as bipolar and is receiving treatment. She turned 17 in February 07. My wife and I pay child support to the state.
So the question is… How do I treat this? Having only been in the home a month in 2006, Is she a dependent I can claim? We pay the state child support. If I can’t claim her as a dependent, can I claim the child support payments? If I can claim the payments, does that include payments charged against me in 2006 or only what’s been paid in 2006? It took them six months to set up the payments, so now we have back support to pay as well.
Thanks to anyone who can help.
She is not in state custody for mental treatment, only that she’s getting it in the form of regular therapy and medication while she’s there. The state is going to hold her until she is 18 and out of high school. At that time, I expect her to return home at least for a while until she figures out what she’s going to do when she grows up. Thanks to everyone whose answered so far, hope this helps clarify things a little.
Forgot to mention. I believe I’m paying more than all the support, but I wouldn’t have a clue where to go to find out. In this state, support is figured out per a scale that factors gross salary, benefits, etc.. It’s not figured on actual costs per child. The court enforces it, but is not allowed to set the amount. Due to my salary, I believe I am in the category of giving more than my share to help make up for those that can’t, but that’s just personal opinion based on no facts I can find, and opinions are like belly buttons.

My marriage is a rocky chair. One day we say we are getting a divorce next day we said I love you. Of course he is far far far away so our communication right now is only emails and chatting. (Important information: He cheated and I don’t trust him anymore)
Now I feel that I’m open to meet new guys and I know is wrong.
I strongly believe he is doing the same thing over there.
Would I find Mr. Right after a divorce?
We don’t have any kids together

My ex and I got divorced back in March 2008. In the divorce decree it states that the car we bought together would now be his and that he’d be responsible for the remaining balance on the loan. My question is, how do we get my name of the loan and/or title of the car? Do we need to contact the company the loan is through AND the DMV? Or just one or the other?
