Legal Question in Family Law in California
child tax exemptions
my original div decree-2003 states my ex and i alternate years for exemption. Since this started we have done this, however i have had our child more than 10 months of each year since. Am i allowed to claim her every year?

Re: child tax exemptions
You may be able to do that, but the court will no doubt impose some financial penalty on you for extra taxes the other parent has to pay. You should consult an attorney regarding filing a motion to change the court order.
