Legal Answers
6 Questions Answered
Q. I have a TRO hearing to freeze assets for supporting spouse. What do I need to do to prepare. What will be Court costs.
A: In NC if there is an existing action a filing fee for a Motion in the Cause is $20. If you need a Temporary Restraining Order to protect marital assets make sure that at the time it is filed a hearing is scheduled to occur within 10 days of the filing of the Order. Also your Motion needs to make it clear that there is a risk of conversion, waste, or an action to otherwise cause marital assets to disappear if a TRO is not granted.
Q. How do I contest a divorce?
A: In North Carolina the requirement for divorce is that parties must have lived separate and apart except in rare circumstances. It requires that only one party needs to have had the intent to live separate and apart. To contest the divorce you would need to show you have not lived separate and apart for a year.
Q. Can I adopt in NC with ADHD?
A: According to statute in North Carolina any adult may file to adopt a child. If you want to adopt a child the clerk or judge dealing with special proceeding actions will Order a Home Study. The home study will include the following: physical and mental health, financial information, the home environment, marital and family history, history of DSS involvement, criminal history including child abuse, or other crimes other than minor traffic offenses, and financial information. There is no indication in these requirements that ADHD will impact your ability to adopt provided you are following a doctor's orders in treatment of your condition. ADHD would only impact your ability to adopt if it impacted your ability to parent.
