What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
Florida
Per my divorce decree I am to pay 50% of any reasonable non covered medical, dental and ocular expenses. My ex is suppose to notify and send me a copy of the bill within 30 days of the incurring the expense. In May of 2016 she sent me an email saying our daughter needs braces and I already paid the down payment..prior to that email we had never discussed our daughter needing braces. In addition, to date, she hasn't sent me a copy of any bill from the ortho DR. My question is what is my legal responsibility in this situation? I don't have the money to pay for the braces.
