What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? ohio
My son went to go live with his father when he was 16, the judge ordered that my Ex gets to claim him on his taxes and I claim our daughter who resided with me. Our son is now emancipated and my ex took me back to court for custody of our minor daughter. He filed a change of circumstance, review of child support and taxes, and in camera interview with our minor daughter who is 14.
We went to court, and the magistrate decided that there was no change of circumstance and that our daughter remains with me, the magistrate did give him extra weekends in the summer and that was it. However, during court, neither my ex or me mentioned child support or taxes. When he recieved the decision of the magistrate he filed an objection to the decision stating that taxes were not addressed and that I claimed our daugther since 2006. Here is the thing: I have claimed her since then because he was claiming our son by magistates order...he twisted the facts. Our son just graduated in 2008. So now our case is back open...AGAIN! I called the courts and they said that there will be no hearing just that the judge will review the case to see if there was an error.
I am confused...will he change the decision without a hearing? What will happen now? I feel there are facts to present...like the fact he never pays out of pocket expenses to the oint I stopped sending them to him...last time I to file contempt of court to get my $2,000. I am tired and need to focus on raising my daughter and infant son, and not expend my energy chasing him down to pay his half..I gave up.
