Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
In 2009, I gave my mom managing joint conservatorship and the father and I reamined with joint conservatorship of my kids. He was to still remain paying child support. I did this arrangement temporarily while I was out to sea with the navy. The judge advised on the court order that no changes be made to the child support and that all payments are to go directly my mom. Afterwards, the OAG stopped the child support in all and said that he was no longer ordered to pay. I have my kids back now since I'm on shore. What should I do. She was in Texas, and I'm stationed in Florida

If the court changed its order, however unfair or unjust it may have been, that's a done deal for all practical purposes.
You should file a motion asking the court to order the dad to start paying child support to you now. File this in TX even though you are in FL because it will be easier to establish jurisdiction over him.
