I just don't think it's fair.

Biodad filed a motion for a new hearing...

I am just not ready to go thru this again.

I just don't think I have what it takes. He is not paying child support and my son goes to therapy twice a month. I pay for it all. Now more attorneys fees on top of the ones he never reimbursed for even though he was ordered.

I am so, so sad tonight. Sad

Can your attorney put in a request to the Judge to have him reimburse the already accrued fees before proceeding further. Can't they do something since he has yet to abide by the ruling? I feel your frustration and I send you a big cyber-hug. ((((((HUGS)))))

I just got it.... not even an hour ago.

It's not fair and I am just at a loss how he can continue to do whatever feels like doing with zero consequence.

I really think he's gonna be made to follow to court order before being allowed a new one? I would look into that...I'm sorry he's such an ass. Isn't there some kind of 2 year rule? Or is he appealing to a higher court?

ass in court. You have an opportunity to nail him for penalty and interest on the court ordered stuff he has refused to pay.

I know that you would prefer to have him just do what he is supposed to do. We all would prefer that from our blended family opposition.

But, if they wont pull their heads out it is our job so shove their heads up their asses farther until they finally see the light and do the right thing.

Good luck and best regards,

and I am broken down.

I just don't know if I can do this again.

Oh CG... I feel so bad for you right now. Your reply to Rags has just brought tears to my eyes. My DH and I have been in your shoes, having to fight time and time again against someone who never adhered to the CO's. I know you're feeling broken down right now, and your spirit feels broken. This too shall pass. You've shown us all just how strong you are, and how fiercely you will fight to protect your son. You're feeling the shock of being hit from out of nowhere with this, and while it's making you feel down and broken at the moment, you'll be recharged soon.

Sending you lots of hugs...

Hang in there CG. You cannnn doooo itttttt!

In our case all things considered we do not have nearly as much to deal with as you and many of our STalk friends. BioDad just pretty much lets his Mommy handle it. She pays his obligations and they occasionally collaborate to be a royal PITA.

It is not so hard to hold them accountable when they only crawl out of their holes once every 3-5years.

Best regards,

What an idiot. I agree with all above. Your atty should request he pay for the previous court ordered fees for you before he gets to drag you into more.

Isn't that just amazing? This guy would rather pay an atty than his obligations to his child.

Loser!

he waited until the very last possible day. Today is the 30 day threshhold, and he did it two days ago.

I know you'll get through it because you have to!! You did great the first time so I know you can do it again.

Hang in there. My thoughts will be with you.

but you and I both continue to go through crap like this for our boys because we, well, we have to! LOL!

You'll make it. It's tiring, it's expensive, and it's ridiculous.

I second the notion that it's pitiful he'd rather pay attorney fees than support his own child.

Where do these losers come from, and how do good girls end up with them from time to time?

But CG it's time to get tough. Have his ass thrown in jail. You seems like a really nice person, but you need to get that attitude that you had with the BM that night when you threw her on the floor and rightfully so. He needs an attitude adjustment.

I know you're tired of all the fussing and fighting. But you can get through this! Do it for your son. Think of how happy you're going to be when this is all said and done.

Counter sue for attorney's fees and bring it to the judge's attention that he STILL has yet to pay the fees from the last ruling. Stand up for yourself and your son and get your dues. If he cant provide for his chid then he shouldn't have the money to give away at some attorney's office

of court????? Can you take him to Small Claims Court for what he owes you???? That is for starters.

Hang in there Colorado.

If so, there has to be some repercussion for him filing so soon after this ruling.

I'd check with your lawyer before you get too worried...

This may qualify him for harrassment!

what a complete jerk that ex of yours is. Cant you file a Motion for Contempt if he hasnt done what he is suppose to doing? Stay strong. I think the judge has already seen what an idiot he is and that impression will stay with the judge im sure! HUGS to you!

Sia's picture

believe this is happening again...what is wrong with this idiot? HUGS

Colorado Girl's picture

I am just spent. I haven't spoken to my lawyer yet so I don't even know the next course of action. He doesn't do appeals which means I have to retain a new one.

All those fears and emotions are boiling and my cup runneth over. I am so down today.

I.do.not.want.to.do.this.again.

Bottom line. I know I have to. Just don't want to. Sad
