Legal Question in Family Law in California
Raise or Bonuses and wage assignment
My divorce decree states that my ex must notify me of any non-
base salary income. How can I find out if he's gotten any raises or
bonuses since he'll never ''offer'' the information to me? Also, I
already have a wage assignment for CS & SS, can I get his
employer to automatically withhold my entitled percentage of
bonuses anytime he gets a one?

Reply: Raise or Bonuses and wage assignment
In a general sense you can get the financial information by asking him to prepare and serve an income & expense delcaration with his 3 most recent pay stubs, or subpoena the records. If the wage assignment is properly filled out, it can include a requirement that the employer pay a percentage of any bonus or gross income above a specified base pay.
For a specific opinion regarding your individual circumstances, I suggest that you consult with an experienced family law lawyer. Experience is not expensive, it's priceless!
