Post by: Michael876 on Feb 27, 2018 John Almeida has come into a family law office to meet with Attorney Willis. He is seeking a divorce from his wife of ten years. Throughout their marriage she has managed all their financial affairs and he has been the primary caretaker of the children. He suspects that she has several assets including investments, bank accounts, and a pension plan among others. He wants to find out information about these assets but doesn't have a lot of money to invest in discovery. He also doesn't trust his wife to tell the truth about what she owns. Attorney Willis is most likely to recommend which of the following formal discovery methods as a cost-effective and useful tool for gathering information that will generate other discovery requests even though it does not provide any opportunity for the requesting party to assess the respondent's credibility and demeanor as a witness.
A) interrogatories B) depositions C) electronic discovery D) requests for physical or mental examinations Q. #2 Sally is claiming that she is unable to work and pay child and spousal support to her husband because she has a debilitating terminal disease but she doesn't want to talk about the details of her illness. Her husband's attorney is most likely to tell him which of the following? A) Sally doesn't have to provide any details about her illness because medical information is protected by the doctor-patient privilege. B) If Sally raises the issue, the court will order her to file a request for a physical examination. C) Since Sally has raised the issue, her husband can file a request for physical examination to obtain further details about her illness. D) Every state requires parties to divorce to submit to medical examinations without having to obtain the court's permission. Q. #3 State administrative agencies differ from federal in that: a. some officials are elected rather than appointed. b. some state level agencies are created by the state constitution, instead of being statutorily created. c. Both a and b d. Neither a nor b Q. #4 Isabella and Roberto are getting a divorce after thirty years of marriage. They have only two major assets: the marital home and Roberto's pension plan at the oil company where he has been employed all of his professional life. Isabella's attorney wants to learn about the specifics of Roberto's pension plan. Which formal discovery method will she most likely employ to obtain that information? A) interrogatories B) deposition C) request for admissions D) request for production of documents or things Q. #5 The court that issues a child support order has exclusive continuing jurisdiction over the case as long as one parent or child remains in the court's jurisdiction or parties sign a waiver consenting to another court's jurisdiction. Indicate whether the statement is true or false Q. #6 At the federal level, session laws are the chronological ordering of statutes, as well as organizing them by subject matter or topically. Indicate whether the statement is true or false Q. #7 Liza and Hank have been living together for more than twenty years. Their relationship has been very rocky the whole time but has become especially intolerable in the last five years. Hank's drinking begins in the morning and ends at night when he passes out usually after hitting Liza several times during the day. It got so bad six months ago that Liz threw him out of their apartment and he is now living in his own place. Liza has decided to file for divorce on a no-fault ground. Which of the following grounds is she most likely to choose assuming it is an available ground in her jurisdiction? A) cruel and abusive treatment B) irreconcilable differences C) gross and confirmed habits of intoxication D) desertion/abandonment Title: John Almeida has come into a family law office to meet with Attorney Willis.
