What is the name of your state? Louisiana
Our court order states that I am to furnish my ex with regular updates on the children. Like changes in their school, doctors, if they are going out of town etc. etc... (all important information for both parents to know). We are both also required to keep each other updated on home address, phone numbers and employement information. So, once a month I send the ex an update (everything from how well the youngest is doing potty training... to the oldest having a new boyfriend and anything in between) If something occurs in between each month that is important for him to know, I send more often. I used to send it through e-mail with return receipt and print copies (with his responses) for my records (and I have had to use them in court in the past to PROVE that I was communicating adequately with him). However.... as of two months ago he has changed his cell phone number, quit his job (as soon as the automatic income assignment order made it to his employer), disabled his e-mail address and moved from his home. So, the last two update letters that I have sent I am sending by certified mail (notarized) to his 'last known address' (the address he gave the court in February 2007).
These letters are coming back to me... unopened and not signed for.
His mother, sister, brother (entire family) have no idea where he is or his new phone numbers.... and he is not calling or attempting to communicate with the children (none of my information has changed... as in address or phone numbers so he still has that information).
My question is... am I doing my part? Is there anything else that I can do to keep up my end of the court orders besides sending to his 'last known address'?
It may be important to note that the order does NOT specify the manner in which I communicate this information. Just that: "It is ordered, adjudged and decreed that in the event there are changes with the children's school, doctors and/or daycare/aftercare, XXXX(me) shall provide XXXX(him) with the new information on those changes, including a telephone number and address of new contact information".
If I've left out any important information... please let me know.
And thanks in advance for any information anyone can supply me!!What is the name of your state?
