What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Ohio
My ex gets child support that is taken out of my check so it is never late. We split other bills such as medical and dental. She sends me the bills in the mail or sometimes sticks them in one of the kids bags. We've been divorced for three years.
I recently got engaged and the ex has been being a real ass about it. She doesn't like my girlfriend, but she treats my kids well so I brush it off if the ex makes a snide remark. Today she called and told me I owed money for dental bills from last year and she was going to file for contempt if I didn't pay IMMEDIATELY since they were from last year.
Can she file for contempt if I don't pay within 30 days? In other words if she broke the 90 day rule as far as giving me the bill, do I still have to abide by the 30 day rule? I'm short on money this month and would rather pay it in October.
We've never had these problems before and the ex is purposely trying to make trouble. IF she files would I need a lawyer?
Any advice would be welcome!
