Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
Hello:
My ex is in contempt for child support and other medical related items for our child. I have filed a motion to compel my ex to help with expenses. I sent a certified letter to him and he received it. He still has not responded to this motion. I believe he has 10 days to reply. If he is wishing not to respond, what motion can l file now. I also sent him 5 days that the judge was available to hear my motion.
Thank you.

Get a lawyer, you are dealing in matters that need the help of an attorney. Anytime you are dealing with children, get an attorney. These are very sensitive matters and the usual pro se plaintiff is not prepared to handle the procedures that are needed. If you gave him 10 days to reply and he failed, file order granting what you wanted. If you have a 5 day hearing, attend.
