Currently, my husband's ex has custody of both of their children. Recently, one of them has decided they want to live with us. My husband and his ex both agree to this and to stop his child support payments. Can the judge rule against this?

I can't see why a judge would. All parties seem to be in agreement. The only issues are the child support payments. There may be legal channels that have to be pursued to make sure that's legally dealt with for income tax purposes etc. and such things as who would have control over medical matters for kids etc.

Judges can do whatever they want, and frequently do rule against both parents under the guise "best interests of the children". It's what happens when one invites the government into their personal relationships.
According to one study on custody, judges gave maternal custody to the mother in a large percentage of the time even though both mother and father wanted paternal custody.

DO NOT stop paying child support on an order issued by a court unless and until there is a change BY the court. Judges take a dim view of people deciding what is best for themselves and their children. What can be done is that if both parents agree, the children can live with dad and the mother can refund the ordered support that the dad paid and I would think plus whatever they agree should be her support to him. That is not illegal but for his protection, he must have a paper trail showing the ordered money was paid.

If no evidence is presented that shows one parent is more or less fit than the other... I don't know why they couldn't. Sometimes you don't even have to see the judge, you can just do mediation to do things like that. Get a lawyer and do what they suggest.

i might conform to alter it. as nicely, custody hasn't have been given something to do with who's have been given substantial determination making authority. If it is joint determination making then you definately'll might desire to tutor to a choose that homeschooling would be greater beneficial on your infant. in case you have sole determination making authority, then it would not definitely remember what he needs as far as training is worried. it is greater beneficial to %. your battles than commence out being ornery for the reason which you think of it would supply you an side. it incredibly isn't a conflict to combat.
