Legal Answers
2 Questions Answered
Q. How to get access to sealed juvenile records in Texas? The case was a sexual abuse case & the plaintiff recanted
A: It would depend on the records. Some records are not discoverable before or after a final order. The Forensic interview, for instance, would never be allowed to be released but you may be able to view it at the district attorneys office given the proper open court case. In addition, you will come against strong opposition from the district attorneys office and the court on this issue because it is generally expected that a victim may recant her outcry after the fact.
Q. Texas deceased husband has back child support arrears on a 32 year old daughter.
A: It depends. If she obtained a judgment for the past due child support within the statute of limitations, the 32 year old daughter or the mother can file a claim for the child support against any of his assets. If the process wasn't followed, it is unlikely that any of his property could be used to pay for the back child support.
