You can file now but I suspect the court will cotinue the order until the end of this school year

He can but it's hard to say more since it's not known what level of the court system his hearing was in. If he was before a master and appeals to a judge, he always runs the risk of obtaining a less favorable decision. If the hearing was before a judge, the cost of appealing to Superier... View More

Could be. If that's the case, then it's likely that the overpaid money is being used to reduce arrears in the case.

I'm sorry but more facts are needed, such as how have you been making these support payments and why do you think you should get them back.

It sounds like you have unpaid support, or arrears, that you're expected to pay off. If you're confused, you should be able to obtain an answer from Domestic Relations.

Sure sounds like it, assuming he's the defendant.

No, there is no such requirement.

Take your case back to court and hope that you can successfully demonstrate that your efforts to find employment have been serious and persistent. Or you can obtain employment outside of your field and also show the court that you couldn't obtain work in the field you used to be employed in,... View More

What is your question?

Quitting a job without good cause does not usually work in favor of that person. The trick will be for the dad to demonstrate that she quit without good cause. He should consult with an experienced family law attorney to determine what his strategy should be.

It's highly unlikely that life insurance premiums will be used to reduce your support payment in the event there is a support action.

You're going to have to ask a question.

If there's a support order in effect, actually your husband is required by that court order to notify Domestic Relations of any change in his income. No, absent your husband's notice to DRO, the ex will not be notified. Your husband needs to sit down with an experienced family law... View More

Hard to know without having all of the facts. The court can garnish a workers' comp settlement for the payment of child support. I'm assuming that the court imputed an income to you based on your prior income and injury. The basis for your WC award (2 years' wages) does not bind the court.

Hard to know. Child support in PA is strictly income-driven so the other order will be based on a different combination of incomes than one would be for you. You might think about meeting with an experienced family law attorney to see if you can get some idea of what a support order, versus your... View More

Your answer is unclear. Why would you give up your children? If you're trying to ask what would happen to child support arrears if their father gives up his parental rights, then the answer is that the arrears would still be of record, although honestly, forgiving support arrears are often...

If the order was in place and not vacated during that period of time, most likely yes.

I'm not sure why this is happening but you might try making an appointment to sit down with your caseworker. Sometimes the best way to get action is to go in person. I'm assuming that the father cannot be wage attached because he is self-employed or changes employment frequently.

He can keep filing to his heart's delight. If you do find yourself in court, though, and you have retained an attorney to represent you, you may eventually be able to receive an award of counsel fees. You might also try bringing up that you keep having to miss time from work, pay a sitter, or... View More

It sounds like four boyfriend needs to consult with an experience family law attorney and file for support. I am assuming that the support order at issue is against him. It would be very odd if the court were to incarcerate a custodial parent for arrears owed the non-custodial parent unless there... View More
