Legal Question in Family Law in California
Resp. disregard for time requirements
Currently involved in OSC case. By date of hearing respondent had not filed response, including I/E declaration. Made excuses about why he hadn't done it and the judge bought into his BS. Judge ordered respondent to 1) complete drug test and supply results to my attorney in 1 week, and 2) file response and I/E declaration by last Thurs. Neither of the above has been done. I believe respondent is playing games to avoid providing pay-stubs & paying child support. If he never does file I/E declaration, what are the repurcutions? Can his pay-stubs be subpeona'd from him or his employer? I have spoken with my attorney, but would simply like second opinion, please.

Your attorney is most familiar with the case and you should follow her or his advise.

Sometimes, though, an attorney doesn't do what he/she should do, and to protect your interests, you should seek a second or third opinion.
Yes, you should subpoena his pay stubs.
