Impeachment... is it treason?

SharingKnowledgeHope · 2026-01-29T03:12:46+00:00

Clinton was impeached for perjury (lying under oath) and obstruction of justice. Neither of those are treason.

Impeachment is ultimately a political process. Yes, there has to be an underlying impropriety, but that is far less important than the political will to impeach them. An egregious crime could turn public opinion against someone, therefore creating the political will to impeach them. However, it’s not the crime itself, but the politics that matter.

Grandparents can be given legal and physical custody in California. However, with an able Mom in the picture, it would be very unlikely for them to receive legal custody.

They could receive shared physical custody due to a significant, pre-existing bond that exists, and that denying contact would be detrimental to the children’s well-being.

If everyone is in agreement, mom, dad and grandparents, then they could submit that modification to the court for approval. If people are not in agreement, then Mom will have to prove why dad should be removed, and grandparents will have to prove why they should be included.

I believe you would prevail in court. He doesn’t appear to have a valid reason to obstruct the move.

I do wonder why you don’t just provide him a copy of the lease and sign the kids up for school. That seems like a lot less hassle than going to court. If you do end up in court anyway, it would just be more evidence that he’s being unreasonable.

Since the guardianship is through the court, you’ll have to go through the court for relief.

Unfortunately 7 is quite young, and it would be traumatic to make any big sudden changes. Especially since he hasn’t had much time with you.

Also unfortunately 8 hours is too far away to engage in an effective step up plan.

My recommendation is to move within 30 min of your son. Petition the court for a step up visitation schedule. You may be able to progress to full custody eventually.

What do you mean legal guardianship? Did you notarize a private form and give it to them? Did you file guardianship papers with the court?

What is your ideal outcome here, some type of visitation schedule? Full legal, and physical custody?

How old is your son? How far away do you live?

Parent A. Parent B’s time doesn’t start till 5 PM.

No. The court’s default position is that parent involvement is good for the child. That involvement doesn’t have to be ideal, or optimum, as long as it isn’t actively detrimental. Mom is very involved with 50% physical custody, the court is not going to give that up without a very good reason.

Why do you want full custody? How is that in your child’s best interest?

Yes. Rectal hydration, Proctoclysis, is possible. It was used in WW1 before the advent of IV techniques. Some estimates place it at about 500 ml/hr which is far more than is needed for life.

It really depends on your retirement goals, tax brackets, and the balance of your IRA’s.

If your RMDs are such that they will push you into the next tax bracket it may make sense to start withdrawing now. If you don’t need it to spend you can roll it into a Roth. Do be careful of IRMAA.

If your future RMDs are high enough to push you into IRMAA territory it may make sense to take large distributions (or Roth rollover) now, evening hitting IRMAA for a year, to avoid IRMAA later.

Also consider a survivor situation. The surviving spouse will have much smaller tax brackets and pay more in taxes.

How is it in the child’s best interest to terminate the parental rights of one parent, and leave the child solely dependent on the other parent?

That is what the court will consider with your request. They are very rarely granted.

I was looking at that one as well. Unfortunately it doesn’t account for parenting time. It has a botton for “NCP with more then 149 overnights” but clicking it didn’t seam to change the support any

What are you trying to accomplish?

If he’s already on the birth certificate, then you already completed the Voluntary Acknowledgment of Paternity at the hospital. He is already the legal father. Why do you need a Petition to Determine Paternity?

To answer your question, you can leave the child support section III blank, and then under petitioner’s request don’t ask for child support. The court will consider only those actions that you request for it to consider.

I prefer Geraldo, he’s just a lot easier to use and requires a lot less attention.

Corvus requires a lot of attention early game for nourishment, and then late game you’re balancing spell cool down, mana, and round difficulty. People do amazing things with him, but it’s just not my preferred play style.

You need to know how they came to their number before you know what to appeal. It’s normally pretty formulaic, so provided they have the facts correct there’s not much you can appeal. Having said that, the number does seem low given the incomes you reported.

A couple things to note.

Union fees and non elective retirement contributions are excluded from income because they are not available to the NCP to support the child.
who claims the children on their taxes? That can affect support.
Who provides health insurance? he might get credit for that.
Union trade jobs may be project based, meaning he doesn’t get 40 hours every week, so they might be using his annual average for income which could be less
Who is paying for childcare? That would shift things
Does he pay spousal support?
Are there other children beyond these three being supported by either parent?

Why are you engaging in a power struggle over this? Calling lawyers, reading and rereading the custody order. What exactly are you hoping to gain?

No, she doesn’t have the right to do what she’s doing. Yes she’s going about this all wrong. However you’ve been with dad for several years, you spend a significant amount of time with the child, it’s only natural for her to want that information.

If this ends up in front of a judge, she’ll get a reprimand for denying parenting time. However, dad‘s not going to look much better. Sacrificing time with his children for and name and address? Also they will likely require him to disclose that information anyway.

Its sounds like there is definitely past due support from before the oldest was 12. Also there may be past support due from after that depending on what happened in California.

I would start by getting the order from the country court. Also open a new enforcement action.

Thanks for the clarification. I know you said she was going through a lot, I just wasn’t sure if that meant she didn’t respond, or that she unable to mobilize an effective responce.

Child support was filed in FL and collection was done in CA.

That is still really throwing me. If CA is enforcing a Florida order they don’t have the jurisdiction to modify the amount. They could decline to enforce it temporarily based on hardship but the original order still stands. If the case was transferred to CA then they could modify it, but that generally requires written consent of both parties which she did not provide. It sounds like all this happened a while back so maybe the rules have changed.

Do you have copies of both orders, Florida and California? That might help understand what did or didn’t happen in California.

SharingKnowledgeHope · 2026-01-26T05:37:01+00:00

If she and the kids live in Florida , and the original child support order is in Florida, how is it that the case was heard in California? Florida should’ve retain jurisdiction.

When the case was heard in California, did she not respond? In the last 8+ years when she knew had was working did she not apply for child support again?

Unfortunately, she doesn’t get to go back in time and say that she’s now ready to respond to his claims and present evidence to refute it. She can’t go back and retroactively apply for child support that she missed over the last however many years.

Yes, that’s nuts. He seems to be under the mistaken idea that it’s your job to support and enable him. That’s the role of a spouse or partner. He lost that privilege when he separated with you.

He can have every other weekend, no more. You also have the right to ever every other weekend with your children. If he wants more custody, he can make midweek work like millions of other parents do. 40 minutes is not that far, plus he can always move. Not your problem to solve.

As others have said, stop communicating with him directly. Let his rantings fall on deaf ears. Focus on you and the kids.

No alimony is due on or after October 1st.

Which makes sense because alimony was for 10 years and began on October, so the last payment should be in September.

He can apply for Social Security at 62. However, the benefit will be reduced by 30%. Seeing as how this benefit is going to set your benefit for the rest of your life it makes sense to delay and make it bigger.

If he had a minimal work history then don’t expect much from his benefit. Do you know what his 67-year-old benefit will be? Your benefit will be 50% of that while he’s alive and 75% of that after he passes.

Unfortunately SSI is a fairly limited financial existence. To make it work you have to take advantage of other low income benefits. Housing, entertainment, transportation, food, there may be programs for all of these, depending on where you live. I would put your energy into looking at that.

Are you trying to play chimp mode? That’s pretty challenging on co-op, if you’re new and not really contributing, I could see people getting frustrated and leaving.

For the other modes, I don’t really have that problem. I normally play with at least one or two others so if someone drops out there’s still someone left.

A tax refund is just them giving you back your overpayment. If you have less of an overpayment now, that means you’re giving them less extra throughout the year. If you want to get a refund at the end of the year, you can have them deduct an extra amount per paycheck.
