Q: Can my ex take me back to court for more child support after 7 years keeping the kids from me?
My ex got with a man that didn't want me to talk to my two kids she went missing for 7 years in another state. She just reached out to me its been 7 years I haven't heard from her or my kids. She is harassing me and threatening me to take me back to court. She has the kids calling me and I can hear her in the background coaching them what to say I have texts and messages on my phone. They were very little since I last seen them they don`t know me because she moved and changed her number. Now that her and her boyfriend broke up she wants back in my life and wants more money. Can this happen can she get more money?
A: Child support is modifiable in Florida until the children reach eighteen or otherwise emancipate. Likewise you have the right to go back to court to enforce your timesharing rights.
