Re: maintenance money

your girlfriends entitlement to the maintenance paid by her father will depend upon the wording of the court order. If the order is that the father pays maintenance to her mother for the benefit of your girlfriend it will be necessary to apply to the court for the order to be amended either for payment direct or to a responsible body.

Let me know if we can assist further.
