Texarkana, TX asked in Family Law, Child Custody and Child Support for Louisiana

Q: What is considering extra curricular expenses? We are being asked to give her 50% of all school clothes and supplies.

According to la RS 9:315.6(3). Support is $800 w/ 65% health related expenses and we carry health coverage. She is also asking for extra money for his lunches each month.

She has denied visitation for his grandparents as well as for his stepmother while his dad is out of turn. She has blocked all contact with his dad. Telling him that he couldn't speak to him cause child support was late. Very rare occasion that it is late.

A: Clothes and lunches no. School supplies yes. If you want visitation, hire a custody lawyer to file contempt or establish visitation/custody schedule.
