Loopholing - Law, Legal & Taxes

i’ve heard it said before that utah has the highest poverty rate, or bankruptcy rate in usa. not sure how true that is, but if it is do you feel that poor mormons paying their tithing before paying their bills has anything to do with that? or do you see another cause.

The bankruptcy rate is no longer the highest, but there’s no question that with about a 1/4 of the Utah population giving 10% of their income to the church, the LDS Church is partly responsible for the financial hardship of many Utahns.

The response of the church has been to tell members over and over again to live within their means.

There is a required 90-day delay from the time of filing to the time of the final decree of divorce. That doesn’t mean that it will be 90 days. It can take longer. It just means that it can’t be any less than 90 days.

Do you know which social service law against leaving the children home alone? The name of the law? Where to find a copy of it?

go to www.nyc.gov and you’ll find links or help for your question.

If you know children that are being left alone- advise the police.

I’m going on 9 years none stop but not legally married yet…. What does n is common law marriage mean for me…. Nice answers only please! P.s we also have a 2 yr old son together if that changes anything!

Common law marriage is only recognized for probate in your state.

Children changes nothing.

If you want to be married, get married.

Just curious if it’s a law that you have to wear a life vest when your out on a float tube. I know you should wear one for safety but is it a law?

l think you have to have a pfd with you. whether or not you wear it.
l carry one stuffed into the bow of my tube where l can access it if needed. l have been approached by law enforcement and nothing has been said because l wasn’t wearing it. same goes for my kayak.
l think they only absolutely have to be worn while underway powered by the big motor of a boat.
even tournament anglers remove them while fishing.

How does a desert state with 30% mormon population have laws more liberal than New York’s?

No.

As to your subquestion, I’m guessing the 30% Mormon population opposes prostitution. However, that leaves 70% non-Mormons, a pretty strong voting majority. Note that next-door Utah with a larger Mormon population does not have legal prostitution.

Most states recognize their responsibility for creating exemplary places for families to live without the need to insulate themselves from degrading temptations like prostitution and gambling. Nevada is a negative exception. Maybe that is why they gave us Sen. Harry Reid, who is trying to replace the world’s finest health system with government medicine and death panels. (To be fair, I expect Nevada to remedy that error this fall.)

Im 16 and i need to know the laws so i can know what to expect because my parents dont want me to have the baby plz help me need answers a.s.a.p
My boyfriend’s father said i can move in with him and have the baby plus ive been looking for a job i put in job applications almost everywhere i know that is hiring and my boyfriend is also getting a job

It doesn’t matter what state you are in, your parents can not force you to get an abortion.
They have no say or no rights over your unborn child, and no say when it comes to abortion.
If they try to use this against you, let them try to bring it to court for it will get no where.
You can get emancipated and mention that your parents are going to be a bad influence on the child and etc.
But you will need a job and have money to rent from a place.

I have an 20 month old son and we live in michigan but his biological father lives in Texas and has never one seen him or even called to ask about him other then his mother emailing me. Now all of the sudden he wants to come into his life and I am not sure I want this. He does pay child support but not very regularly. I was wondering what the law on filing abandonment on him and if it is possible to revoke his rights? thanks!

my husband has joint custody already, does this matter?

She has to be at least 16 and both parents must agree on it.

My husband was arrested a few nights ago and charged with simple possession. I was wondering how much time this charge carries. I looked all over the internet but can’t get an answer. He has no previous criminal record, this would be his first offense.
I know its against the law. And I know it is an automatic felony, what I’m asking is the time he might have to do. It was a small amount for personal use. (simple possession)

don’t know about Louisiana, but it should be probation or supervision for a first time offense. that would be a simple possession charge meaning he is a user and not a seller. hope this helps you, also you should be able to get a free consultation with an attorney to tell you what might happen and only they might take the case for 500 to 1000 dollars.
