What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Alabama. My husband currently pays $600.00 per month child support on his 2 minor children. Both children live with thier mother. He is not in arrears for back child support, and does have visitation with the children every other weekend, and holidays as defined by his divorce decree. When the divorce judgement was granted, both children were enrolled in a private school and attended daycare. Neither of those apply now, as the children attend public school and stay with thier grandmother in the afternoons. The divorce decree specifically addresses that both parties (my husband and his ex-wife) shall keep reasonable communication regarding the children. This also has not happened - on her part. She fails to notify him of events, sicknesses, and where the children are staying when not in her care. We currently wish to have the Divorce/Child support decree modified to meet present situations for the children (public school, no daycare). She has also failed to notify DHR of these changes in her financial situation, and continues to collect the monies for tuition and daycare. My husband, and I feel that this is illegal, and would like to know if we file contempt of court, could she possibly be made to reimburse the monies collected for these activities, when they havent applied for over 2 years ? Thank you!
