My husband went to court yesterday to get his ex's alimony stopped on the grounds that she is making 50% more now in income.In the divorce budget she claimed to make 9,000 a year back in 95 in the decree it can be modified or terminated if income increased 50% she brought a paystub to court yesterday which says so far this year she has made 33,000.She says she makes 13.00 an hour and never gets overtime (dont add up to me) the judge allowed that and put her income at 28,000 a year.He also asked her about the budget she had when they first got divorced she claimed back then her phone bill was 150 a month he also allowed that she claims to have family far away she needs to call.Her gas bill for the car is 200 a month she lives 10min from work the judge also allowed that.Just for herself her food bill she says is 700 a month he did adjust that to 300 a month.Why do the courts have the ex husband pay for her pleasures if she wants to travel let her pay for this and to gab on the phone for hours why do we have to pay for that? The judge said he was going to enter her new info in the computer and see what money she needs if any. Will we have to keep paying her even though she can support herself? This is in Delaware. |
