15 Questions Answered
Q. I need to respond to a motion to modify custody he's asking for full custody himself I need full custody for me
A: First, you should respond to whatever motion he filed against you. Then you should file a motion for custody and request a hearing. When you get your hearing setting, prepare for the hearing by reviewing the state statutes, court procedure and local rules.
Q. My question is how do I know my rights as a father after after a leabe of absence leaving the state of nm for over two
A: In New Mexico, you are presumed to have joint legal custody rights to your kids unless there is a court order stating otherwise. If there is no case currently pending, then you should file a parentage and custody case immediately to protect your parental rights, and to establish your visitation.
Q. How do I go about getting full custody for my son but not file for child support?
A: You would have to petition the court for full custody and request a hearing. New Mexico requires that a child support worksheet be filed with any parenting plan/custody order, however either party may deviate upwards or downwards with respect to what is owed under certain circumstances.
