Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan
Step Dad Medical Bills
Hello, my step daughter recently
had to go to the hospital. After my
insurance coverage there is a bill of
$7500. The divorce papers state
that her dad is supposed to pay
half. I paid half the bills and are
now being sued by the hospital for
the difference. He has never paid
child support, so I figured that
every dollar I paid over half was
money in the wind. Is there a way
that I can have him billed?

Re: Step Dad Medical Bills
The best way to deal with this is to purse the father in court. Just of course, whether this is effective depends on whether this guy has money. But you can certainly get him found in contempt which may cause him to come up with some money to pay.
