Re: medical exp.
You need to go to Court on an OSC and request an order that she pay the past due bills, plus I would request attorney's fees for having had to do so. The Court will not offset Child Support, however, it may reduce spousal support. Most likely the Court will order her to pay small monthly amounts to cover the past due bill. Make sure you get interest on the debt!
