...dissolution of marriage. It is equally important to note that Missouri is a no-fault state, meaning that the petitioner need not provide proof of infidelity or abuse, rather they must demonstrate that their marriage is irreparable. The first step in petitioning for dissolution of marriage in Missouri is to determine residency. If either party is a resident of Missouri or a member of the armed services who has been stationed in Missouri for a minimum of 90 days, then a divorce can be sought in Missouri. The next step in...

...minister, they say it from their deep down inside. However, life changes. Things don't always work out that way as we thought. Many marriages turn out bad. That’s when you find out prenuptial agreements useful and beneficial, especially for those people, who have family business. It’s a wise choice to protect your family wealth. If a couple does not develop a prenuptial agreement before they get married, the state law and federal law (to some extent) will dictate which party owns the property acquired during marriage, which party is responsible for debts incurred during the marriage, and what happens to the property and debts at death or divorce. State law may even dictate what happens to some of the property owned and some of the debts incurred by each spouse before marriage. However, a prenuptial agreement agreed by the couple themselves gives the prospective husband and wife an opportunity to decide how they want to divide property and debt, as well as handle other financial matters and provide for their children, upon death or divorce. The primary benefit of a prenuptial agreement is that the parties can sit down to discuss the priority of assets and financial conditions during the marriage rather than when they are in the midst of a hotly contested divorce proceeding. They can agree to any terms they want for the treatment of property and debts, as well as decide whether to include a spousal support waiver in the agreement, as long as the agreement is valid. The agreement...

...children. Eric meanwhile is associated equally with a friend in a limited liability company to perform an activity in industrial cleaning. SA has created a subsidiary form of CNS in which it holds a 90% stake and Claude Frank and holds the remaining 5% each. Franck is married, without a contract and a home owner with his wife and himself had built after their marriage, as well as a farm. SCI, SARL and SNC are each a sum of € 20,000 to a supplier. What can happen to Albert, Eric, Claude Franck and if these companies do not pay what they owe to the supplier? A supplier who can he ask to pay 20,000 euros owed by the company? For which this application is it not possible, and why? * The case of Albert: In a civil society, there is unlimited liability and not integral partners. That is to say that if unpaid debt, the creditor must apply to each partner's share of the debt, a proportional share allocation of capital between them. In this case, Albert holds 45% stake, also his wife, and his children, 5% each. Thus, the supplier can not claim that € 9000 to Albert, or 45% of the debt of 20,000 euros. The rest of the debt claimed to be his wife and two children. € 9000 to be his wife, and € 1,000 for each child. Note however that the creditor can not act against the partners only if it has exhausted all possible remedies against the company, or almost only when the...

...Themes of middlemarch The Imperfection of Marriage Most characters in Middlemarch marry for love rather than obligation, yet marriage still appears negative and unromantic. Marriage and the pursuit of it are central concerns in Middlemarch, but unlike in many novels of the time, marriage is not considered the ultimate source of happiness. Two examples are the failed marriages of Dorothea and Lydgate. Dorothea’s marriage fails because of her youth and of her disillusions about marrying a much older man, while Lydgate’s marriage fails because of irreconcilable personalities. Mr. and Mrs. Bulstrode also face a marital crisis due to his inability to tell her about the past, and Fred Vincy and Mary Garth also face a great deal of hardship in making their union. As none of the marriages reach a perfect fairytale ending, Middlemarch offers a clear critique of the usual portrayal of marriage as romantic and unproblematic. The Harshness of Social Expectations The ways in which people conduct themselves and how the community judges them are closely linked in Middlemarch. When the expectations of the social community are not met, individuals often receive harsh public criticism. For example, the community judges Ladislaw harshly because of his mixed pedigree. Fred Vincy is almost disowned because he chooses to go against his family’s wishes and not join the clergy. It is only when Vincy goes against the wishes of the community by foregoing his education that he finds true love and...

... Big Weddings Are an Obscene Waist of Money Everybody wants a dream wedding just like their favorite celebrities, but is it really necessary? People spend their life saving just one day, some even go in debt. In present times, marriages do not last long and often end up in divorce. Most people even go to city to get married for a much cheaper alternative. I think your relationship should be based on how big your wedding is. A big wedding is nice, you would probably remember for the rest of your life. Not only because it was considered to be the best day of your life but how extravagant it was. First off, you have to get dresses, tuxes, flowers, catering, live bands or dj, and location. I think just buying a ring is expensive enough. Let's not forget having a nice honey moon. During the 18th century salve trade, Africans got married by jumping a broom and still love get each other. A Marriage should base on love and loyalty, but it's not always guarantee how long you'll last. According to the U.S. census bureau, 41% of first time marriages end in divorce. They often end up very messy involving lawyer, children custody battles and alimony. We see celebrities wedding want to live the dream. They board cast their weddings and get paid commercial wise. It's different for an average person. Brittney...

...Outline Worksheet for Monroe’s Motivated Sequence: Questions of Policy/Action Title: Legalizing Gay Marriages Speaker: Tyrel Brown Specific Purpose: The specific purpose of this speech is to educate people about marriages and persuade people to help in the fight towards legalizing people of the same sex to be married and not put on contract. I. Attention A. Attention getter: FCKH8 Video Clip B. Establishment of Ethos: I am an expert at this because I have studied both opinions on this situation and referred to different people about their view on this topic. C. Central Idea: The central idea of this speech is to open the listeners eyes to ground rules set up from the beginning that states that separation needs to be made between religion and government, so the two shall never meld to become a theocracy. With the issue of gay marriage, lines get blurred and religion rears its head to influence a government’s decision of who shall be married and who will be refused. (Transition) What is marriage? Marriage is a social union or legal contract between a man and a woman that creates kinship which is an institution in which interpersonal relationships, usually intimate and sexual, is acknowledged in a variety of ways, depending on the culture or subculture in which it is found.

...Married Is marriage the best choice in today’s society? Once upon a time marriage was viewed as a vow between couples before God. It wasn’t socially acceptable to live with your significant other unless you were married. It wasn’t socially acceptable to have a child if you weren’t married. Those rules have changed. Why would you want to get married and spend thousands of dollars just to possibly spend more money to end the marriage? In 1950 you were not allowed to live with your significant other unless you were married. It was unheard of. You would live at home as a lady until you were wed before God. Today there are many couples who live together and do not ever have to walk the aisle and legally bind two individuals. Marriage today is a status saying it’s official and if I want out of this relationship it’s going to be harder than ever. I hear more stories about married couples getting a divorce than I do about them celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary. In 1950 you were forbidden to have children out of wedlock. If you were even thinking the thoughts that would lead up to creating children before you were married you could have been sent away. In today’s culture there are many children that are born to very loving parents who can raise the child just the same and not be married. Being married doesn’t make you a better couple or give you superpowers. It might be a 2 tax break once a year but not enough to add up to the debt that you...
