What is the name of your state?Wisconsin
BF had court and requested that his payment be lowered (700). The court did not lower, but set another court date. He is paying out about 1/2 of his income before taxes, right now. He is an independent contractor, so the wages do not come out of his check.
He is a little bit behind with payments right now(about 1 1/2 months), and cannot afford to pay all of it. Is the court going to frown on him because he is not all of the way caught up? Should he take a loan to pay it and hire an attorney? Or will the judge think he has more money because he has an attorney?
We drive 3 hours one way once a month and spend 3-5 hundred on food, lodging and entertainment for 2 days. The judge would not lower it because his ex made the point that he takes them camping. We can only camp for a few months here, and most of that time is the summer spent with us. At any rate, it is still expensive to buy food, get a state park pass, pay to camp. What do we need for court? Should we try to go back and document waht we have spent? I know there are a lot of questions, but we need to be prepared.
Thanks.
