Q: If you have 50/50 no child support each parent pays for the clothing, food, shelter while the child is in their care,

Can The other parent try to take the father to court if the father marries a new partner with children? I was never married to my sons mother, now I am getting married and she is saying she will take me to court for child support if I do. My soon to be wife does make good money but she also supports her children by herself (no income from the father of the daughters)

A: Child support can be established at any time the parties are living apart. It can also be modified at anytime upon a showing of substantial and continuing change in circumstances.
