He has been in jail numerous times for this and still refuses to pay. We are again in court. He has the ability to make around 18.00 and decides he wants to make 5.25. Will the judge go for this and just let him work for 5.25? He is also on probation for the same thing and the state seems to be to busy to take care of it. What else could I possibly try to get the dead beat dad to be held accountable for his actions?
But let me assure you that he's the first one to be here when it's time to see his children,as long as another man(stepdad)is the one supporting them in every thing they do financially.

First of all, see if you can keep him from the kids. He is bad news.
Second, I bet he is making money some other way. Find out what that is and you can threaten to turn him into the IRS who WILL throw him in jail

This is incredible to me. My husband switched jobs a few months back and during the switch he got 450.00 behind. He has the support garnished right out of his check. His ex calls if his accounting department is late sending it off and now OCSE is on his *ss already garnishing his wages for the arrears. I cannot understand how a deadbeat like your ex can get 12,000 behind. See about having his driving privileges taken away for not paying. As far as him choosing to work a minimum wage job, I think that it his right to choose where to work. He is an idiot, though. I mean, come on, if he has the ability to make $18 an hour he would have more money for himself even if the courts amended the support order to make him pay more support. I think it is time for you to seek new representation. Get an attorney that is serious about making him pay. Keep calling OCSE. It certainly works for my husband's ex. Good luck.

Possibly time for an injunction to garnish wages, although you might not see very much money. How does he survive on 5.25? Is he possibly hiding money? A court can not force him to get a better job, or stop seeing his children. He seems to be pushing all of the right buttons to get around it. I would just plan around it, don't count on seeing any money and if you get it, good. If not, then you will be ok financially.

wow...you picked a great one out of the bunch! Leave the guy! If he has so much in debt with his ex wife you dont need that on your shoulder. I didnt have to read what you had to say, the question said enough. Sorry girl, leave him and find someone else that can pay child support and has a good paying job!

It seems to me that the system works for the deadbeat parent instead of us. i say stay on them contact your case worker, contact the judge that order the child support contact them on a weekly basis . help them keep up with hie employment status give any information you can get to them . If you stay on them they gonna get tired of hearing from you and they gonna want your calls to stop so in return they are gonna get on his butt. Don't spend money on attorneys its their job that's what the state pays them don't give up, stay on them leave messages contact his jobs send them arrears information most jobs don't want to deal with child support issues so they will in turn tell him to get his business straight or they will terminate him. if you cant get a share of his earnings to support your child or children then he doesn't deserve to be employed and as far as visitation let him this offers you some time to relax and get from under finical stress. let him see them so they can see for themselves the deadbeat he is you don't have to say a word it will show and then you wont come out looking like the bad parent. But just stay on the state wear them down they will break.Hang in there its a tough fight but your kids deserve all their support.

to respond to your "will the choose 'enable' her to paintings for $5.25"? see you later as she is operating, they are unlikely to inform her the position she is to paintings and how a lot she has to make. baby help is ordered in accordance to what that figure is making. If she replaced into making better at the same time as it replaced into ordered and is now making a lot less, she will bypass to courtroom and petition to get it diminished. it would not keep in mind that you understand she has the skill to make better and it actual would not remember in case you want that she isn't making that. Now, as for what you may do? She has already shown that she would not care about going to reformatory or being on probation. She has already shown that being lower than a courtroom order ability no longer some thing to her. Why do you let this get to you so? do not get me incorrect, I DO understand WHY it receives to you, i wager what i'm asking is why do you save beating your head adverse to a wall? obviously it really is totally complicated at the same time as the figure ordered to pay, would not. i visit understand your anger at her wanting to ascertain the youngsters yet no longer wanting to help them. although, no longer paying baby help, in a lot of states, isn't a reason to terminate or reduce again visitation. In different words, she isn't "paying to ascertain her little ones". you do not element out how previous the youngsters are, yet opportunities are intense, they're going to observe who's there for them and who isn't. we do not continuously get what we are "intitled" to, it really is merely how existence is. attempt to end letting your anger over this get to you want it does. comprehend she is what and how she is. earnings from the time with your little ones, for his or her sake.

Sounds like you have a attorney, maybe a new attorney for you. Is the IRS holding his refunds, and forwarding them to you? Can you get his wages garnished?

Ask the law-enforcement and court systems to enforce the order.

Sue for full-custody without visitation rights.
If he wants to see his kids bad enough, he'll pay up.
If he doesn't...then that'll be bad for the kids, but it's still of his making.

Does he have or want his drivers license? Most states will take it from dead beat dads.
