I am a non-custodial father who pays support thru the courts. My ex now wants my 11yr old to come live with me because he is a behavior problem and she is sick of him and he wants to live w/me. CAN I STOP SUPPORT QUICKLY. Do I need this change of residence put in writing by my ex? What do I do? HELP

My response:

You need to change the court orders through the court. The orders, as they currently stand, are the law . . . between you and the ex-wife. Without them being officially, and lawfully changed, support payments will continue to be subtracted from your paychecks, no matter where your child resides. So, one of you must intiate the Petition . . . the argument being that it should be her because she's the one who wishes to change her custodianship.
