What is the name of your state? NY
Sorry so long but please read
I went to court in May for his downward mod petition and my violation petition.
Then Judge asks ex how he responds, he tried starting in on his needing support lowered because etc. Judge then said no they already responded your petition and it is here with the court, we want to know how you respond to her petition. Judge then reads my petition and then ex says "its over $3000?!?", i dont think its that high I just paid $1500 and Ive been paying $30 every week (wrong-he had one $30 payment as of that court date 5/30). So they call in the support clerk, SHE reaffirms that it is over $3,000 and the $1500 payment was credited and it reflects that. So ex says "how did it get that high"?, now the people's faces were just in shock. The judge says it adds up etc, and the judge asked when was last payment before the $1500 we say November.
Ex then carries on about people at support told him even he needs to get it modified, the judge says to him saying save it for the hearing etc. Judge says why havent you been paying and he says " I dont have a job(im confused about this part in his petition he said he had a part time job) and last magistrate told me I could pay whatever i could" then the faces on them were priceless (they know a magistrate wouldnt say that), They were smiling (im not sure if they just couldnt believe he was saying these things or what not). What she said was "do what you have to, to pay or at least pay something til you find a job and you better find something soon because its not going away".
Then the judge set a hearing date for both petitions for mid July. Ex says so can i start explaining my petition to lower it and Judge says no you can when you come back to court and then ex goes ok whats the date? Shows how much he listens.
They offered him a lawyer in the beginning but he said he wanted to continue without one so there we go. Next date is in 10 days.
Heres the payments hes paid
Payment Date Payment Amount
06/30/2007 $15.00- 06/13/2007 $30.00- 06/04/2007 $30.00- 05/25/2007 $30.00- 05/04/2007 $10.00
All this doesnt even equal one week payment (including his add ons as per the order).
What will they do for violation if hes not working, has no property in his name, and they already took his license. I hear they dont threaten with jail in my county mainly just tack on more towards arrear weekly but if hes not working what then? Right now hes over $4,000 in arrears. Will they make him prove hes looking for a job. He had one first week of May(when he filed this pet. and wanted support to reflect on that "only work sometimes job") cs unit found it heard back saying he no longer works there as of May 11th (total of a week there)-somethings odd.
