Re: Eminent domain

I have no idea how the concept of eminent domain would apply to this situation. Where did you read about this concept being applicable to domestic relations situations? Please write back and tell me about what you have seen and where you saw it. But more to the point, this is a situation where there are issues of a domestic partnership and issues of child support. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing in this case. Your aunt needs to have a lawyer help her in this situation, plain and simple. Otherwise she will be out on the street or living with you in your home. Can you help her with the payment of attorney fees? Someone will have to. Otherwise, she also might try and get legal help from the Northwest Justice Project or, if she lives in Snohomish County, Snohomish County Legal Services. She needs to see alawyer IMMEDIATELY! Good Luck!
