I filed a divorce petition with a minor child but he has turned 18, can I type the decree without him on it?

Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Answered by attorney Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Divorce lawyer at Donaldson Stewart, P.C.
If the child has turned 18 and has graduated high school, you can indicate in the Decree that the child has emancipated, so no orders are being entered. If the child is 18 but still in high school, the decree can reflect that there are no custody/parenting time orders entered because of the child's age; however, the child support obligation continues until he graduates high school, drops out prior to graduation, or turns 19, whichever comes first.

How long after a divorce would one have to wait to get remarried?

Answered by attorney Ronald L Bornstein (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Ronald Bornstein, Attorney at Law
There is no minimum time frame before one can get remarried following a divorce. However, it is generally recommended that you wait at least thirty (30) days from the entry of the final judgment to allow the period for each party to file an appeal to expire. Consult with an attorney to discuss the specifics of your situation and your options.

If you have been seperated for over 10 yrs do you have to pay your spouse a certain amount and why?

Answered by attorney James Timothy Weiner (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at James T. Weiner, P.C.
If you have been living apart for 10 years any divorce will be likely to be a status quo.. e.g. neither will pay spousal support and the assets in each other's possession and control will stay in each others possession and control.. There are no guarantees though.
