Legal Question in Family Law in Tennessee

Child Support

I have been trying to collect child support from my ex wife for years. She refuses to pay. I started a website about 2 months ago called www.tndeadbeats.com. I listed my ex on this site and also will list other deadbeat parents. Well Channlel 5 and a newspaper have ran stories about my site. My question is: My ex wife uses her mothers address for everything. This is also the last known address the child support office has for her. On my website I put her last known address, which I still believe she is living at. Now I am getting emails from her mother and brother saying if I dont take the address of the site they are going to sue me. Do they have any grounds to sue me since this is actually the last know address my wife has on file? Thank you so much,

Re: Child Support

They probably have no real basis to file suit, but in this country it doesn't take much to FILE the suit, though winning the suit may actually require something. If she DOES file suit, remember that truth is an absolute defense in any action for libel. If you would care to discuss your options in more detail, contact me thru my website at jesbeard.com
