A crime is reported to the police and the police talk to the DA's office about pressing criminal charges. If they say it's not criminal, they tell you to get a private lawyer and sue in civil court. You will most likely be told this is a civil matter.

I highly doubt that you will win a case against the company the notary works for, unless it is part of his job at work, and not even then. He may just say that your partner showed up with a woman who had an ID of yours and so on. But you can work on getting his license revoked through the state dept of licenses. Look on your state.gov website.

The main culprit is your partner. You should notify the Family Court that you didn't sign anything ASAP. Having a lawyer would help a lot, because every step is paperwork. There's even a certain burden on you to prove you didn't sign and aren't just changing your mind. Things like that, and where to go and what to do, are where a lawyer is needed.

To give you more information on this matter this is a well known timeshre company in which my ex is a top manager the "friend" is a notary for that company to noterize deeds etc. It seems to me any idiot for tax breaks would sign Antibes name if the company they worked for facilitated it! This mans has so much back taxes an different garnishments taken from his pay I would be waiting in line just to get back my attorney fees! I'm thankful for your response however without a chance at the company I feel I'm doomed! Why is it this always happens to me! I'm a good person raising her kids! Not fair at all!!

So is the company providing medical insurance and other benefits to you that are now available.

But you report this to the police, Since you were not out any money because of this, I don't see a civil suit, but the fraud and the notary can face criminal charges.

Since they were doing this for private and not as a action for the company, I do not see where the company is involved, of course most likely they will lose their jobs when this is reported to the owners.

Then you file the police report, for fraud, go back to the state case worker with proof that you are pressing charges and this was not agreed to.

If there is any medical bills needed, you can sue him for that if his fraud is the cause of it.

This does happen, I'm sure to every Family Court (it happened in my family with some mortgage papers), so concentrate on telling the court rather than on suing right now.

I'm a little confused by what he did. He forged your signature on what? The only benefit I can see is that you now had medical insurance under his policy. Why would you complain about that?

Maybe I'm just not getting what he did that was a problem to you.

The issue is that if he is claiming a domestic partnership, then there is a issue it appears in getting welfare and medical coverage though the state. And he must not be furnishing medical insurance though the work.

** I am assuming some of this by piecing together what was said ( or not said)

Thank you everyone for your comments! Let me explain a bit more due to my youngest two children were abducted at time of insurance enrollment we could not put them on insurance unless their was a life changing event, until next enrollment after out breakup of course not having a substation income now, apply for medical assistance that's where problems began. Aparrently it's as if I'm attempting to commit Freud when in fact I didn't know or sign those papers. Of course if I had known of there existence I would not have pursued Medicaid . This puts me in such a mess! I clearly did not want marriage or any union that I suppose is why he signed my name or tax break not sure! Wish the drama would end

Ahh, I see. So your problem seems to be that you are being held up as trying to fraudulently obtain public assistance because he had the children covered under his policy.

So you file criminal charges for forgery. You also file charges with the state's notary licensing bureau.

I am not up 100 percent on medicaid, but if you and he are living in the same household, you still have to report his income to social services as household income for determination of income?

Were you not reporting him living in the house with you, ( assuming he is) and were you not reporting his income ?
