Legal Answers
Q. How do I know if a motion to reset a hearing conference was granted or when will the next hearing date be or far
A: The judge will sign a written order either granting the motion to reset or denying it. If the motion is granted, the order will state the new date. If the hearing officer conference is drawing near and you haven't received the judge's order yet, I'd suggest calling the clerk's office to see if they've received it back from the judge's office yet.
Q. Do you have to contact birth father if they weren't married to the birth mother and didn't go to court for rights?
A: The birth father may have to be placed on notice of the intent to adopt; however, his consent may not be required if he failed to communicate or attempt to communicate with the child without just cause for over 6 months. Your fiance would likely need to marry you, however, to be considered for an intrafamily adoption.
Q. In Louisiana divorce, does living in a separate structure on the same property constitute "living separately and apart"?
A: Yes, living under a different roof on the same property can constitute living separate and apart.
