Default Footnote blank lines

I have a document with several blank footnote lines that cannot be removed.
The line has only a paragraph return in it. It does not have a footnote
reference, although when you show paragraph marks it has a small black square
(like a bullet) in front of it. It does not seem to affect the footnote
numbering. Efforts to delete are met with a €śthis is not a valid action for
footnotes€ť message. Converting to endnotes does not permit removing this
blank line. When in the wrong place, it can force a footnote to the following
page. Or it leaves a blank space.
