Legal Answers
- Q. Can me and the witness wave the 14 days of a subpoena being served
- A: Yes, if the witness agrees.
- Q. Will I be ordered to pay half of my wife's medical debt when we get a divorce in Colorado?
- A: Your wife’s medical debt will be considered marital debt. If it was incurred during the time you were married to her,marital debt is subject to an “equitable distribution “as is marital property. Equitable distribution means “fair “, not necessarily “equal “. You should get a lawyer to help you with this.
- Q. Will a Colorado judge order a noncustodial parent to purchase a vehicle and cover the cost of car insurance for a child
- A: I do not think a court would order this. There is no provision in the statute for such an order. I have never heard of a court doing this.
