Police seldom get involved in withholding matters, even though they should. It is likely that you will need to file a motion with the court to hold him in contempt and modify parenting if he actually violates the parenting time order.

if both spouses using separate accounts paid $30,000 on mortgage and one paid 20,000 and the deserting one paid 10,000, can deserting spouse who paid less be forced to pay the extra 5000 to meet an equity division requirement regardless of profit on the sold house?

Potentially yes. It would require an order from the domestic relations court as to the split of equity and assets.

And if a court ruling is required for this and one spouse has proof that they paid more on the mortgage than the other spouse, does that give them a favorable stance in getting a ruling for them to sell it the way they want to or transfer the mortgage they want to?

The court decides. Paying more on the mortgage is only one of many factors that the court would use in splitting all assets, not necessarily just the equity from the house.

It is likely that you were named in an abundance of caution as having a potential interest in the property. All parties with an interest in a property must be named in a foreclosure. You can likely do nothing and be fine, but if you'd rather file something with the court disclaiming your... View More

In Ohio, courts usually make final rulings on division of assets at the time of divorce, and retroactively reopening... View More
