My wife's license was suspended for non-payment of a ticket in Lake George, New York. She then received a ticket in Suffolk County for driving with a suspended license. On the eve of the court date, her father-in-law passed away, and she did not go to court. She has a copy of the death certificate. Can she get another court date? Can she be arrested for not showing up? How can we get another court date? Should we get a lawyer? Thank you for your help.

My fiancée has been involved with DYFS all her life and chose to keep her case open for monetary and medical support. We recently found out we are having a baby and requested to close her DYFS case. We moved to Delaware to stay with my parents until we can afford our own place, but her case worker refused to bring the papers to close the case and mentioned she might need to ask her supervisor. Since then, she has been receiving threatening calls from her mother. Do we legally have any threat of losing our child? Are they just playing games with her to keep her case open? What are our rights, and are there any ways to get DYFS out of our lives for good (such as marriage, which we are planning before the baby is born)?
