Legal Question in Family Law in California

Im currently paying my kids mom child support and alimony because she claimed in court she makes bare minimum pay and only works a few hours a week.

she told me yesterday that she was offered a job as a supervisor that payed very well and the hours were full time but she refused it because she would be oncall. i told her that i would be there for the kids anytime she had to work so we can spend more time together and she can work how ever much she needed. she still refused it and said shes' content with the hours she has. is there anything i can do about that? i feel like she's sand bagging the court - rather than earn her own pay she'd rather stay under the court ruling of me carrying her

Absolutely. You need to go in to court and ask for a support modification based on imputing to her the income she could make based on the job offer.
