Question

My Ex-Husband owes $6, 825.00 in back child support. He hasn't made a payment since the first week in September of 2013. We went through a three and a half year court battle and our divorce was final in August of 2013. He was to start the new child support payments the following month. In September he only sent half a payment and no other money what so ever. He moved to Michigan before our divorce was final and my son and I live in Florida ( I am primary custodian). He quit his job of 12 years and claimed to the judge in August he couldn't afford the child support. She found him to be underemployed and awarded my son child support based on his previous job. My ex refuses to pay. I have went to child support enforcement but they say it can take up to another year ( I did not receive the signed order until May of this year (2014) to give to the child support office. My question is can and should I also file for contempt of court for non-payment of child support? I asked child support enforcement if I should do this but the women nastily replied to me "then why do you need us?" I want to do whatever I can to get the child support my son deserves. My ex did not pay much during the divorce either so I have been struggling financially for almost 4 years now. Can I legally go through the child support office and file contempt charges? I also found out just recently because he moved to another state and owes this much in back child support that he is in violation of a federal crime. Do I have some legal avenue this way to get him to pay? Thank you so much for answering my question.



Answer

1. Talk to your attorney.

2. If you do not have one, hire one.

3. If you have relied on the government for child support enforcement you got what you paid for. Never rely on the government, federal or state, for security.

  1. I am laura lsabella; I want to share a testimony of my life to everyone. i was married to my husband George Morgan, I love him so much we have been married for 5 years now with two kids. when he went for a vacation to France he meant a lady called Clara, he told me that he is no longer interested in the marriage any more. I was so confuse and seeking for help, I don't know what to do until I met my friend miss Florida and told her about my problem. She told me not to worry about it that she had a similar problem before and introduce me to a man called DR.ALLI who cast a spell on her ex and bring him back to her after 3days. Miss Florida ask me to contact DR.ALLI I contacted him to help me bring back my husband and he ask me not to worry about it that the gods of his fore-fathers will fight for me. He told me by three days he will re-unite me and my husband together. After three day my husband called and told me he is coming back to sought out things with me, I was surprise when I saw him and he started crying for forgiveness. Right now I am the happiest woman on earth for what this great spell caster did for me and my husband, you can contact DR.ALLI on any problem in this world, he is very nice, here is his contact (allispellhelp@gmail.com)(allispellhelp@yahoo.com or you can call hem +2348149158514
