Legal Question in Family Law in Utah
Good day,
My name is Debbie Baxter. I live in Utah and have an court order for child support ORS case 000601393 against my ex husband. He moved to South Carolina and is self employed. He owes over $10,000 in child support and will not even communicate with me anymore. The court found him guilty of contempt and ordered him to pay my legal fees, which he has not. He also refuses to pay his 1/2 of our daughter's medical and dental fees. I understand that there are various steps which could be taken to help force him to pay us including taking away his driver's license, freezing bank accounts, putting liens on his assets, etc. My child support case was in Utah with the Office of Recovery Services. They have forwarded it to a South Carolina child support agency. I have been unable to communicate with South Carolina. I am falling further and further in debt due to failure of the father to pay us. I do not want to have my house foreclosed upon. Are there any organizations, etc. whom I may contact to help put some "fire" under him. He has assets which he has used for plane fares, cruises, trips to resorts, a pleasure boat, Harley motorcycle, Corvette, King Ranch Truck, etc. I have copies of these as he turned some of his banking activity in to the courts. He has money, but doesn't want to pay for his responsibilities which include his daughter. Any help you can give me would be so greatly appreciated. Thank you.
