What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Louisiana
My brother is currently going through a divorce and must appear in court which happens to conflict with his work schedule as he is a boat captain currently working offshore and wont be returning until after upcoming court date.
His last option is to send an order for continuance to the court but due to his location is physically unable to do so. He has asked me to type the letter (Which he already emailed me), sign his signature, and mail for him.
My question: is this legally ok to sign his signature even with his consent? And what other implications might there be for me if I do this for him? I'm aware that he must also send a copy of the continuance to the plaintiff (soon to be ex-wife and her lawyer)
Advise is greatly apprecciated
