First question is concerning custody laws in Texas, can one parent choose to give up their rights without having to have the consent of the other parent? If no why not?
Second question is mortgage. My friend puchased a house 2 years ago on first time buyers. He now cannot afford to keep the house and can't afford to get out of it the right way. What should he do? If he just leaves what legal actions would be taken?
Third concern is grandmother of a friend had her niece down as the custoden of her will. Well the aunt sent aps officer out under alligations of the grandmother being declared incompetent. Well the grandmother was unable to go to trial so she was declared incompetent. During the trial she also filled for custody of the grandmother in order to have power of att. Over grandmother and have full advantage of assets. Now the aunt does not take care of the grandmother legaly or finance. She has removed all grandmothers funds from the account she had into her own personal account. What can we do?

If you expect a reasonable answer, you may want to state a specific question or even state multiple questions. Those who ask questions do have the responsibility of asking specific questions, unless a psychic reads your general question and can tell exactly what you want to know.

Otherwise you may visit the State of Texas website at:

And do the research yourself.

I apologize. Ihave made my questions more descriptive. Thank you

No, a person is resonsible as a parent and can be held responsible by the other party if they don't want to be. If it was that easy a father would just give up custody and not have to pay child support. So both parties have to agree for custody to be given up, since the other party is then giving up their rights to child support also. So who ever this is, they are stuck being a parent unless the other party will agree

He moves out, the lender sends them several request for payment, they then send him notice of default in payment. The lender files to have the loan declared in default and to have the house taken back.
The house is sold, normally at auction.

Example, 100,000 house has a 80,000 loan, it is in defalut. It may sell back to the lender or to someone else for 40,000. Your friend will still owe the bank 40,000 plus foreclousure costs and auction costs, maybe 50,000.
They will then hunt him down and attempt to garnish his pay for the money.

This is a little over simple, if you want a more detail let me know

Well a lot about grandma you should have done when all this was going on. And grandma needed an attorney at the hearing or someone to be there and say why she can not be.

You can hire an attorney, petition the court for another hearing, if grandma is mentally OK that is. Or if she is not, petition the court to have another guardian, even a court appointed one to be placed over her.

Most likely all the money is gone and if your grandmother is declared competent in another hearing, she can sue this other person, but if this other person has spent all the money and has nothing, there is little left to do.
