Legal Question in Family Law in Kentucky
Violation of Child Support Modification Judgement
My husband and his former spouse recently went through a court hearing to modify an existing child support order from their divorce in 1996. The judgement has been handed down. In it, the judge emphasized to my husband's former spouse that she has primary possession, not primary custody. She is to confer with my husband prior to involving their child in anything we will be monetarily responsible for (the court found us 64% responsible and her 36%).We just received the order a week ago and she has already stated she is the ''primary parent'', that she does not have to discuss any issues regarding the child with us, and she will make all the decisions. She has already done so by enrolling the child in an expensive daycare program, she has had companies which she contracted services for the child without consulting with us send bills in my husband's name and she will not disclose the actual cost of any of the services we are to pay for, but tells us she has already paid and we are to reimburse her. What can we do? Also, we are to pay directly for child care costs per the court order, but she is telling us we have to reimburse her. Please advise!!!!!!!!!!!!

Either a contempt of court proceeding or a
request to modify the recent order to
make it more specific would seem to be in order.
Re: Violation of Child Support Modification Judgement
In response to your e-mail, you need to advise the court of what is happening and make sure you create a record of what is happening. you would also be doing a smart thing to try and counter her behavior now or else i gurantee that her conduct will continue along the same lines in the future. i can be contacted at 502-583-2005 ext 102 to discuss the matter further.
