What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Montana
So....I filed a motion of contempt against my Ex-husband (failure to pay his 1/2 of medical bills for 2 or so years)
Since I am currently pro se, I followed the directions for filing provided by the MT Legal library.
Ex has been served (by a Sheriff's Deputy in the County where he lives).
In his response, he cites MCA 25-3-101 which states
As used in parts 2 and 3 of this chapter, the following definitions apply:
(1) "Notice" includes all papers and orders (except process) required to be served in any proceeding before any court, board, or officer or required by law to be served independently of such proceeding.
(2) "Process" includes all writs, warrants, summonses, and orders of courts of justice or judicial officers.
He has a copy of the parenting plan that spells out that he owes 1/2 of any out-of-pocket medical expenses, he has received my numerous requests (w/ copies of the paid receipts) for payment....
Should I have sent him a copy of my "complaint" (petition) prior to filing it with the court??
I do have an email in to an attorney friend for clarification, however, it is the weekend....and I'm concerned I did something incorrectly
