Q: My fiance has a court order for child support which he pays. Mom refuse and blocks him from seeing child. What do we do
We are getting married next month and she often refuses his calls or blocks his calls and text when she feels like it. He actively goes to the school just to see him and spend time with him. When she gets her child support payment (which he pays faithfully) depending on her feelings at that time she will let his son call him or spend the weekend. It's a vicious cycle that only hurts the child in the long run but she us just not seeing it that way.
A: It sounds like she may be in contempt of court. There should a court order outlining visitation, in addition to child support. If there is indeed a visitation schedule, then she is required to follow that visitation schedule at a minimum.
