good morning we are going to talk today about celebrity divorces in Texas my name is brandy austin and this is larry micah moore with the brandy austin law firm we are going to start out this morning with love d khloe kardashian and lamar again and in case you don’t know what they look like we have visual aids from Maria our family legal assistant and translators okay let’s tear it off the main issue in this divorce allegedly was a drug and alcohol me know tell me how that plays out in a divorce case so
you know I’m really unfamiliar with your car benefit so drugged enough all do play a significant part when it comes to a marriage when it comes to divorce they tend to answer the marriage they can be called negative feeling David calls people to be violent or just don’t care about the divorce in in general so when we’re looking at drugs and alcohol the one thing about that is when it comes to those terms and dealing with that people tend to mess up the marriage nation to want to get a divorce based on those
issues all right so if i was getting divorced and my thought my spouse was using drugs because if we didn’t have kids take it okay yeah you can make you can make it take a drug test but normally when you’re talking about with kids and without treated drugs are very important with kids because it determines on who is the better parent to be there for the message for the Chilton drugs around children Texas does not like GPS doesn’t like so they take that very very seriously and I want to give you a
little background what happened he got the call that workers have a cottage in a brothel related to drugs and alcohol is he retracted the divorce so talk about about retraction of divorce and tech business hospital doesn’t happen what are your top yeah it does happen I mean call it nonsense and we have several times where people come in and they want a divorce and we’re going through the entire process we spotted petition for divorce maybe you have a hearing date set up and then all of a
sudden they’re like you don’t want to go through with it happens a lot stationary non-straight of a divorce a lot of times in those situations be parties come back together and they reconcile or they see them when they figure out hey I wanted to use this as a mechanism to make this personal understanding to top serious I am about this marriage and sometimes work and we actually recommend yes very and when you say it more on current many women who want to save the marriage in your experience who is lovely food
really I fight as men I need a lot of them they come in and they really want to say where do we want to help them to me we would prefer to stay in the marriage as well to it at the end of the day for the couple tops are both parties have to want to be a couple and harder to save the marriage can you get the board the only one party wants to get divorce it is up it is very possible you can we have a lot of times well there was one that I had where you know she came in and she didn’t want it all the way up until the actual day of
the fond of the more she still said I didn’t wife let it happen it happened there’s a dress can order it no matter what okay so let’s talk about what happened in Khloe and Lamar weren’t actually married would there be if they bought all the stuff together and how the house live there together would they still need to go through the divorce process would there be property to separate what what happens if you’re not technically man well we’re talking about technicalities it just depends on if you
know their common law marriage sometimes we have that where people who don’t have the official piece of paper they haven’t had the actual ceremony with the times evidence then add that but they went around amazed at 18 and we’re husband and wife they help themselves out as husband and wife o’clock property together other people knew that any other property income taxes together so in those situations the other courts going to treat it like you know American separate process but if these two aren’t
married and engines boyfriend and girlfriend together then there’s no way that they’re going to get a divorce okay and if they say they are filing actions together and they are under the Texas Medical marriage without formality and if their common law married do they have to you to divorce they have to get a divorce per se but it would be what happens if they don’t and one part is that they have a very Merry yeah then in that instance and accepted before where if they don’t do that the other part of
your marriage then that person can come in and say hold this business this isn’t a proper marriage dream of marriage based on America’s up from aliens and this message board father’s rights to the wing conspiracy and this can we come up a lot in circumstances where one party dies and there’s a large estate and there’s a fight Evan money in the end if somebody was married without formalities come on Mary didn’t go to the actual divorce process there’s technically still the stuff so they get
more property than the other party there’s a whole long legal battle okay let’s move on to what is taco and chris martin ok so the term conscious uncoupling was made famous by these two conscious uncoupling means a lot of things but our analysis is more of a collaborative law courage there we have a little more about that yes so I no idea what this man outside of all the spiritual aspect that was mentioned in it it sounds like that both parties have to hang look we’re both at fault we’re in a marriage
things work this out for for the best interests of everybody so when you could it really sounds like they’re doing some type of collaborative some type of mediated agreement that hey let’s just work this out be simple and separate the things you know in the best interest of both parties so in that instance anytime someone’s getting a divorce one of the best processes is to come together and realized look let’s take all the emotions out of it we’ve got property here we’ve got kids we need to figure
out how to do things right ones are kids and both parents prepare an effectively set up schedules set of things to not disrupt their lives because they want to come to the property a we both came in this together we bought property we’ve got all kinds of things together figure out how to separate this Sylvia Emma flip so that’s what it sounds like to me since my clever law has a specific requirements under Texas law it’s not just hey let’s agree and move on correct yeah so you can’t have both parties have
attorney yeah okay so it’s not always the best option you really do have to analyze that a collaborative law works for you and your family whether you know if there’s too much might work out on one side of the relationships and then the clouds law may not be the best option but they’re still cleaning you can mediate before you get divorced before you use paperwork to mediate you can sit down and you have two lawyers come together you can come together yourself and there are a lot of options to resolve conflict
or a marriage without all the court filings and the protective orders and all that sounds nice yeah and that the one that you touched on before was going to take both parties wanting to do something to make it work is one person doesn’t want to do it then it’s not going to work at all okay what is health care chris martin they still taking vacations together they spend to have a i believe it’s similar to a 50-50 custody arrangement what what are your thoughts on continuing vacations
together and how that looks for the children and how that affects future relationship on a celica I think it’s pretty cool I mean you hardly see a boy you know dealing with people were getting divorce and dinner with children it’s emotional I mean it’s seven was one of the heat love that attorneys are just like ah because it’s emotional you’re dealing with emotions but to see a couple who says hey look we’re just not working out but we got kids so we’re going to make it as normal for them as
possible and the taking vacations and it has become I mean the kids are the ones that are benefiting from much and that’s a very positive thing compliment you hardly ever see so as much as the the terminal unconsciousness a couple hundred fungible coupler is just forward to me the idea that you can you know go your separate ways but still come together for the kids I yesterday and ok the next couple we’re going to talk about is johnny depp and amber heard here’s a picture limit you don’t recall the day
our captain jack and believe she was in she wasn’t really with him time remember that and i think mike double-xl okay there are a lot of issues in this marriage and allegedly obviously we don’t know the details will happen but just based on the information available on internet the rivers and TV shows we hear there was one that’s fun and we’re for me going further we want to put the domestic violence hotline number up so if you are in a domestic violence situation or if you just need more
information or you how a friend is a bad situation please call aight dep 7 jun 01 states or eight seven seven seven zero one seven two three three you just want more information online you can grow it wwj/ap MTC org and just so you know if you go to that website and somebody else is in the half there is a part with Justin clicks to completely change the website on the right hand side a big circle box okay so domestic violence a protective order what’s that process of like in Texas well one of the things
for protective order this want to be I mean that is an important tool to use to keep you safe if there is a domestic violence normal household it’s also a necessary tool to keep you safe if there’s domestic violence going on in the household so basically process simple pic working file you go to the court you have a hearing and you know let the judge know hey this is what’s going on for the judge determine whether or not a protective order should be issues now in 640 give issue it gets
blast out to the law enforcement agency of the person who has a protective order on them can’t come within 500 feet of certain things so if you limit their access to the abuse party it is nothing to be taken lightly so you have to have enough evidence enough facts to basically show the judge hey this is why this step is routed the miss the process are symbols that now we’re talking texas from Texas a gun safe so if you have done and you get detective oration on you those guns are gone and even if they
don’t get projectable and they get a permanent injunction which is a little less than protectable arousing the guns of skill gone there too so this is something to be taken very seriously I especially got federal laws regarding don’t ask its domestic abuse as well and it’s not just for wrecking people I mean it applies to you know people who have careers at carry guns well let me install very very different okay so tell me about the hearing is it did ex parte which it went outside the other party’s
hearing and outside of their knowledge war it is a joint hearing whether actually look like so well it’s worked if we’re going into a chipper restraining order that’s ex parte so a lot of times what I’ve seen what we have done in certain cases is summer comes in and they say hey this is what’s going on my household you know wanting to divorce but there’s this abuse as best as that so automatically is we’re going to file something we go to the judge we follow kate working with junctional hang
outside of everyone else it should be turning in a sedated these are the things that are going on this is why we need this temporary straight water to get things for the quest in the mill and then we have a certain times are to come back so that that person who we have said hey that doesn’t bear than opportunity to present your case for full on protective order hearing a lot of times what happens is we’ll get something put in place and then there’s a date scheduled to come back in to
actually have the full hearing so that basis of the case I mean something like this word that the exact stringent another person that the other has to have the opportunity to say hey here’s what happens here and so we were talking about you’re talking about hospital records we’re talking about please report photos the anything that has witnesses all of these people all of these documents can help prove that there’s been domestic violence or at least is a risk of dementia toc correct yes i’m in Saudi
nope I mean in court sometimes you may I didn’t have all that it just may be a he said she said and that’s rough to present it that way to have a judge determine whether or not there’s something there so we always like to have as much as it is possible to that we can protect the person of the trans effect okay so once you detective order a play and they hit come within 50 feet what happens if you see your ex out and you have backward when you go any minute what happens to that but you couldn’t
just get put in jail the you know protection and there’s no question and oftentimes if there’s a dispute between a couple and there’s no proof of any violence the cops will often say well this is a civil lab and say you need to go through the regular court system but if you’ve been diligent and you get your protective order and fat and you don’t have to do that if anything happens to it about and it could be a [ __ ] 1 is immediately taken away so if you happen one both sides we’ve seen it in most
party needs protected too good you know the last thing we want is mother of all you take away from their children or or someone to be injured her door it works case it’s skill so I can’t clean this you who have a domestic violence issues call my normal hours they cave in town and locally i’m sure you can be cold only one in your area if you’re outside of dsm ok so in that relationship amber occurred requested album let’s talk about outlining attack can you get out on we call supplemented
but yes you can get it denial it doesn’t last more adamant doesn’t last forever i mean they’re your time limits on it you know I think the minimum you be married for 10 years and I think the duration for that is like five years that you can get it but it’s not just an automatic here some unfamiliar with the celebrity to be a celebrity that in Se habla español they both have risen money so a lot of times of the people that we deal with our clients we know they had one party who is a breadwinner who’s bringing in the
majority of the money and someone who has had children of excited to stay at home which is done that is a job stuff but once they get divorced that money that’s coming in from the other spouse is no one can breathe air so these proclamations is there to allow them to have some some income coming in so that they’re able to get back on their feet to make a sum that they would say if they wouldn’t make a choice there is Liberty cases it could be and I’m just getting here that they ever
heard took a hiatus from acting to follow joined up around to film Harrison a Caribbean or whatever he’s doing and he wasn’t able to ask to her career get to the hole so she wasn’t complicated till she got back up and running in the end ever heard donated seven million dollars to charities which butcher’s son allegedly is what we see allegedly so I ok when we get some say we get a single mom with a husband that makes ever under thousand and she not had ended or chef education but she went hi babies in a
freak age and she is a situation where she thinks it’s time again for she doesn’t have any much for a true see she doesn’t have a tiny to get started what would that process look like and you know they come any they see it they fill out paperwork and all our cases what happens next what happens next is if we bother Kate’s the go forward I mean we’re going to watch out for especially if she’s been the person who is there that it’s taken care of the children King DOX appointments extra activities
units I mean she is there with kids up when I asked for her to be able to disney upon their own children we’re going to we’re going to ask for her to be able to collect the child support to help support the kids honey answers we’re often asked this was about the maintenance because she has taken me she’s taken me opportunity to raise the children wasn’t put her career on hold so she’s going to have to have some income to allow them get back on her feet from there you know we go to the
same process of figuring out the Great Island community property Texas it’s 1550 the presumption is without any other mitigating circumstances of any asphalt divorce procedures you know we just go for stricter to display and then you see that sometimes that’s what is different if 150 is higher suit and one’s level right yes sir explain let’s get your scenario you kill me at what what could be it was the court might do in Texas say a white work and put her husband through medical and she she
works full time she had to care for the kids and she paid for this patient she paid for for everything and to care the house will walk he was born the medical school baby five years after he graduates he find someone that he would rather be with you know she say she opens the small house Land Company to pay for education she’s never to make the money you know not never but wasn’t likely happen to make the same money has a position to in her business what would the court take into consideration the estate’s
consideration all of activity especially discussions link found someone else and it’s taken community resources and spending on this person which fortunately we do see a lot they’re going to look at the the assets that it can wait too long so the person they’re going to look at the time and told that it that it took for the device to help help this guy get through to get his career path and look at the earning capacity millions it all these factors into play so it will probably go from
you know a 50-50 I’m in some cases not seeing where it’s been a SATA me 30 and 70 in favor of the wife and thirty percent to to the husband but it just all depends on the evidence and the fact that you have to play to show to the judge hey this is why we need a disproportionate share of this day without those the judge is going to lean straight back to what the law is a bit different with and we’re having been out here it can be women who are end up being the bread earner German we’ve seen
it both ways it’s obviously less common to have a male come in and put his wife through school and all of that but we encourage it here we do so in the an introvert case Johnny one an attorney fees is it possible to get turning speed and your attorney fees pay for any more business books so what has happened to that actually occur so there has to be a lot of things that come into play I mean when we’re talking about the parties condom what they’ve done in the cage he’ll be turning to make a diligent
efforts to get things going and then the other side meaning be the public or e that’s in it you know if you’re asking for that we’ve seen you document silicon they sit and Wayne Wayne him to keep requesting another thing should go tell the judge look we would have had to charge our client list much money if they would have done that there were to go for you to allow them to keep in shape this kicked off a lot of times what ports do as they say you pay your attorneys fee you pay your attorneys
fees was done for in this incident with this case when we’re talking about these guys I mean it was given the boat Lopes trying to get that done but when you have these allegations of domestic abuse and all this violence and then there’s a settlement to give this money it was I was exposed by the extra turkeys because I don’t any judge of the credit if you look terrific night yeah not in Texas but you have to prove certain things on on why your hardness need OT and it makes xperia will simply be that they
you know they want the breadwinner biggest has the money so going in there are certain things that you asked for even during if their local court here okay Your Honor we needed to internal Trinity she’s not making money he was with breadwinner or from yoshi’s breadwinner he wasn’t and then they have the money to flex me some of that money to pay for eternity and then judges will you know latekka lytic worship we had a lot of questions people who don’t know why money who come in and say well can
you just give the my feeds for your services from the other party we can but we do require a fret money because it it was most people don’t know if there were four hundred dollars 250 case in here in town develop county of kids pursue avoid nickel corner plus gesture is there’s a lot of actual up front for feeds that your win to file an education in that across the board no matter you know whether you these are worth under armour you how to turn there are statement agencies that you have to pay services
that you have two agencies season season working but in the end it you know if we can get to a rigorous fearing we can discuss attorneys fees and that work better okay we’re going to move on from he most salacious split up of 2016 brangelina I think everybody’s tired too aggressive News Lena are but there’s a picture of this if you are unfamiliar okay so this is your shipment gps was involved in that case so surprisingly a large number of cases we receive any time happy p is it was I get
that was surprised when i first started practicing you know i would say maybe thirty percent of cases have gps moment that kind of accurate yes this is welcome our case and it always was the tunkati dismal it scared it’s scary for for both parties fault correct here yes how often does eps actually come in and take children from their name no I mean it they don’t they don’t just comment enter take the kids that it better be some serious serious violations for the kind of hint a lot of times people come they have to
they get any type of phone calls that hey something is happening consider the company doesn’t a lot of times the trouble that you have is when they do come at all there’s a likely shut the door no anything is going to go away we keep coming back yeah so you know their requirements Leo the continue to investigate until eight is really high enough information to determine whether there’s not really anything there or whether there’s something there is to be investing first right yes um so yeah in
order to protect your right we always recommend it PBS is knocking on your door call entrance to hell attorney just to just to make sure things go smoothly it doesn’t have to be a battle it’s not about at this point so something at slide with the court it’s not really about in the court system right yes if you definitely definitely call an attorney I mean we you know there’s cases that I’ve had where people are you know and they’re like and they’re just like oh but you’ve got
understand like certain things that you saying may be misconstrued or I get you know if discovered she just comes in you know college journey cooperating and you know we’ll go walking through that process similar the thing CGS requires and drug testing probably number one there most all cpf cases that even if there hasn’t been a lot of allegations of drugs the biggest district soon and then they look at medical history and so if there are specific things that injury the topic times that automats this day
hey there’s a problem a good spiral fractures things like that eat you at that point Dustin PPS king five wins of course without your knowledge and then come with papers and take you and take the kids for me right like it when I talk about talking to dance like a riskless tricking me growing up you know monday is Isabel I told be right but when someone else was not use that term is turn beet they think oh my goodness that is a straight line speed but in reality is it to spank right so certain
words that people are used to you in if you say that something to not use that I came to take it out of context so it’s very important that you talk to someone who understands the process to help walk you through it because you may say something that does it mean that and it’s true total difference yeah I say it’s my daughter I’m going to be here I MP my daughter but I always tell her that I picked it up I’m going to beat you with a wet noodle she has no idea what a spanking
actually means but here was the last her bag and my husband have said hey maybe you should not say that for some people so just be careful what you say and what’s going on ok so it’s brad pitt actually got supervised visitation let’s put up picture of the angel and agility back there’s one more time [Music] okay it’s black we have to take a break to find out with the emergencies are we’re still actually working to their emergency I might be surprised visitation rights I got to provide
visitation i believe it was only briefly I think you able to get very impatient later but supervised education is always really scared for people to hear yes yes it so what does that look like mr. president it can be I want another family member sometimes it can even be on the mob okay yeah we’re dad and a lot of times one of it is one of the best places for supervised visitation is summer where they have workers there there are cameras there there’s a place that set up that allow someone to report
back to the court hey [ __ ] is how things are going especially their allegations that you know that the children’s don’t want to be around this parent but if you have someone there is a neutral party seeing that they can come to the courts the heck you can visit took over really well the kids are directly in this matter and it may allow the process to look forward for context standard extended or a confession ok system presidency even get that a court network right or you can vote for two uniformed share of the
degree area ok but that can be king so it’s not at the end of the world if you get supervised visitation in there could be allegations of abuse with with actual information effective or drug issues and supervised meditation allows you the opportunity to help yourself yes and then help your children correct yes and a lot of funds if it’s used in a conjunction with have a stair-step where it goes from supervised visitation or certain amount of time and then maybe someone supervised and then work your
way all the way up to a full unsupervised before without access and it’s one of the better things to do especially for parting to having been in there the children’s lodge form of all my time it just gives them an opportunity to build that relationship so that they can get really need to get citizens are great opportunities they are the type of medical there is a there is a dad that has possession a primary position of a child and the mom took off when the health gender six years later mom comes back she went through some
issues she wants to be involved in a child life can’t she petitioned the court to be back in the shelf life yes hey well so no matter how many years it’s been no public she’s loved she’s mom and does the court in Texas k mom or dad does the court in Texas allow for her work has become involved in in southwest yes they want that I mean courts ones in there so this is the time going to give the fair except possessions get the rats differ and you know they’re there any people judges
where they utilize the stair set but then also there may need to be some reason tatian counseling in conjunction with moms in the therapist on their own and then chomping on their own in the community together because it’s a process where if you’re dealing with small box or developing emotionally and then having this person come in I’m amor I’m dad they need that time to have real sketchy that worked out the heel to the digging become a center the primary parent can’t stop that is if
there are issues with you know get drug abuse or physical abuse or emotional abuse which is a little more difficult to prove but it still can be proven and it still does occur unless those things occur you can’t stop the reunification with a parent energized and Texas requires child support unless the writer terminated somebody say help sport has a parasite together and in conjunction with that they also want a relationship with the child we don’t want children to grow up without both parents in their
life at least someone unless there is out there the courts are open to it and we get compensation frequently we’re like we’ll just person to shut up to now I hope okay we could do reunification we can do a stair-step we can even in and we can do where it’s mandatory this means is it what at this time before you move on to the next step to make sure that that person’s gonna stay around but it still does that happen we can’t eat that office for all parties involved in earnest and really dig into the issues
be what’s going on and make sure everybody is happy and healthy along the way right yes that’s okay a little signer but important list because this questions to come up with point in the resonance angel each case there were accusations of coworkers so there are other reasons of State San Fedele mean was it seems to be kind of sign that we don’t have this drew we’re just going to go on the assumption that it is sure what is that how that play out in Texas we’re talking about adultery right yeah okay okay so
yeah it also is one of the xbox provisions for divorce Texas a no-fault divorce days so adultery is one of the options where you can stay a well this is why we get divorce the other party committed adultery it’s tough to prove you know there might be allegations and certain things like that which is so near subjection of it or any windows not going to prove that I mean you have to show that this person willingly had sexual intercourse with someone other than the husband on my wife would that
said if they get Scriven up people out feels party to have a larger share of the community to say also we’re talking about the kids I think they have like six sixes so if it’s done in front of the kids or the kids know about that or their privy to that information that’s going to change things when it comes to possession access major conservation aspects judges frown that would come to kids hearing about or being privy to that information because it hurts an emotion so let’s give another scenario couples to marry
for years husband they don’t have any children they’re limited community property husband finds out Washington cheating on hand but Sheila wasting money to the paper in so self-righteous and hatred for anything how likely are the court to I want to give the entire path to the husband because the wife cheating I don’t think it’s likely any niche in some instances you may have a different challenge the judge that takes a hard line [ __ ] stamp it comes down to seven most of the time you get is so
what approach I mean they you know their time the valency adultery as he calls it to the board so it is the pencil situation a lot of times if it’s kids involved that’s when things are funky that we really get a good ruling but apparently kids just depends support is doing we always tell our clients do it is awful it’s awful where you’re going through this is probably the hardest time in your life especially find out this person committed your life to is cheating on you and we like to have all that
information at for us so we we know how to approach the case but it’s not always going to change the outcome of your date so it’s good information to have important to note that the courts don’t always see it the same way as the person who’s being cheated on okay one last question you mentioned there’s six kids one thing i read online so allegedly was that the oldest son and i believe he’s a teenager refused to visit with rested after flip their way what does the court for a parent to do if the teenager
refuses and they frequently refuse to do something so for this court water buddy the elf importers and allows possession okay so there’s this court board in place and one party is to have possession of the child from their time literally that so i read if you present a child asking for it kind of play and the child teenagers still children regardless what they think and they refuse while out refused to do something do you pick them up kicking and screaming and force them into a car now no we don’t do that here’s what I
think and I’ve hit two cases penis and once the 17 inning goes on was like 60 but they refused to go no not going to happen so be the other parties with supposed to have possessions all stay positive forsman looks like hey they’re not allowing to have a session here it didn’t go well for the mom or dad who had children and they were like the one I suppose you do like I told them to go what they can go there are certain things that you know their kicks out there where you know what did you do
when they go you know if you put them on punishment or grab a bit more try to make it up but a lot of times you know parents are like rock hands off it’s not my thing you know they don’t go there I want to go as a parent what you need to do is if that happens and you know that your child is doing and you got spit on to talk to them get what the other parents come together federally meeting in sale is it you have to do this you have to go no matter what you want to do as long as you’re in the
mud room you’re going to go and do what you have to talk it out because if you don’t you could find yourself in an enforcement here saying hey I didn’t do anything and things may go bad for you but at quartz want that happen and it’s a sticky line in your will you gentlemen teenagers is very sick and it’s also really depends on the zone doesn’t incentivize agency rule in a different way right yeah okay so I’ve Hudson cases where if you are just officially lay out the places of the exchange of the
children’s of times the exchange exactly how it’s gonna happen you can’t really enforce it you can’t really enforce it so it’s important to have an attorney grasp that language so that your rights are protected children everyone’s rights are protected so they called attorney call us we’ll be happy to give you a free consultation so that we can talk about it and I’m going to put Larry information up everybody’s information our phone number is 8 1784 1906 Arabic
