Hi there. My DH's separation agreement states that he will pay support each month for his children as long as they are "attending college full-time and remain in good academic standing ...." (This was a voluntary agreement on his part ... not mandated by the state when they separated.)
Well, his ex refuses to give my DH a copy of his daughter's transcript from last semester, plus, the course schedule she provided for this semester doesn't have the child's name on it anywhere and she refuses to provide us with one that DOES have the child's name on it. She's playing games. She/her attorney have said that they are going to file a motion for contempt because my DH has not paid support that may be due for January and February. My DH doesn't feel he should pay support without the proof that the child is fulfilling the two requirements for college child support - our feeling is how can my DH be considered in contempt, when he hasn't been given the information to prove that the child is attending college full-time and in good academic standing. A course schedule with no name on it and no grades from last semester won't cut it. To me, if anyone is in contempt, it's the ex since she is willfully and purposely withholding evidence which is necessary to prove college child support is due.
Are we correct in our thinking or should the ex be able to get away with not having to send my DH the documents necessary to prove the child is fulfilling the two conditions of college child support and file a motion for contempt in the meantime? I would love to have your thoughts and appreciate your input. THANKS!
