What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Virginia
Hope, I'm putting this in the right place.
My ex have Health Insurance on Our kids. We had and oral agreement that he will pay all their Medical Bills. And the last two years Daycare Cost, in exchange for him not paying CS. Well, in the last two years, I've been taking the kids to Doctor appointments, and paying the majority of their Doctor and Prescription Co-pays. (Which, isn't and issue.) I felt Dad shouldn't have to do it all, especially since I was already there.
I have two Concerns:
1. Found out today, one of the kids need eye glasses. Dad suggested that I pay half the cost. Which, I don't want to be petty about this. In Feb. 09 I filed for CS. (And, I know this is why Dad is asking for half of child eye glass cost.) Some of you may remember the issues I had with it. Dad lied about his income, and got credit for his girlfriend child. Really, reducing Our own kids CS amount to me.
Q: Without a Court Order, am I under obligation to pay half of the cost of the eye glasses.
Q:And, how much time can go by before I file for Contempt of CS. (He has paid for one month.) Which, the CO state, CS should be paid on the 1st of the month. Dad states that he can't pay on the 1st of the month. That he has to pay his Mortgage and other bills. He's going into two months behind.
Q: We have another Custody date in a few more months. Would it be best to just wait until the Custody date and show proof of Dad being late paying his CS.
Any advice will be appreciated.
