You should retain an attorney if you'd like assistance in filing for a reprieve. If you'd like to first look into this further on your own, there is information and an application available on the DMV's website.

If you are asking to change custody and for the other parent to pay you child support, you likely need to file a complaint to modify. The filing of the complaint to modify begins a modification action where you can ask the Court to change custody and order the other party to provide support.

If both parties are in agreement, you may be able to follow this up with submitting a stipulated modification order to change the order to the new terms that both parties... View More

Yes, they can do that---but you do not have to accept the conclusion of the insurance company. You can make them take you to court and prove their case before a Judge. Likewise, if you are seeking money from the insurance company and they want to pay you nothing or less than what you believe you... View More

Keep in mind, that the Court can also sanction you for not paying child support if the other party... View More

Thanks!
