Q: My ex-husband has not paid child support in five months it is only court ordered not through DHR
When the kids go to his house they only get fed macaroni and cheese and a bottle water once today they also sleep on the floor whether they’re also know that he is here at my 13-year-old with his fist I have a special needs child that is it that is sick he has asthma seizures autistic and a heart problem that dad knows nothing about a no-win there is CPR certified
A: If he is ordered by a court to pay child support and is not doing so then you can take him back to court seeking that he be forced to show cause why he has not been paying and held in contempt accordingly. I assume from what you are saying he also has court ordered visitation. If so, it does not sound like that is going well either. Your option again is to take him back to court to adjust visitation so as to protect your children. There are some very good judges in St. Clair County. You need to get an attorney on board to help you navigate the system.
