Motion For Stay Request
Summary
Asset dissipation involves wasting or misusing marital assets to reduce the other spouses share in a divorce. It can be considered fraudulent if done deliberately. Legal steps include documenting transactions, consulting an attorney, and filing motions. Due process laws, including the 14th Amendment and ADA, protect individuals with disabilities in legal proceedings, ensuring fair treatment and reasonable accommodations. Equitable tolling allows lawsuits after deadlines if extraordinary circumstances prevented timely filing. Colorado does not mandate legal representation for disabled defendants, but ADA and due process ensure fair treatment. Hiding or wasting assets can lead to financial penalties, legal sanctions, or adverse judgments. Sanctions enforce compliance and can include fines, activity restrictions, or contempt charges.Full Conversation
