What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maine.
Ok I am the NCP. EX is CP. We have 2 kids. There is nothing in the divorce papers bout splitting school cost. Only the amount for CS and that we are to split any medical bills not covered by insurance 50/50, and that we are to split the cost of transporting the kids for my visits. Papers do say that while I have full access to school records and stuff my ex does not have to get my ok anything dealing with school stuff. This was done so if the kids wanted to do school sports or after school clubs or such she wouldn't have to deal with having to send me paperwork to sign form the school
Ex has a child with a long term boyfriend. They decide that instead of public school they where going send the child to a private school. They gave each of my kids the choose if they wanted to go or not. My oldest said no but the youngest said yes she wanted to go. S0 starting next school year my ex wants to let my daughter go to the private school. She will be in 6th grade. Based on the website for the school its 4,500 a year not counting some other fees this includes the cost of school books and goes up form there to end with 12th grade being 12,000 a year not counting the cost of books.
My ex for years has complained and said that there is something in the paper work bout splitting school cost. I know there is not as a couple years ago the oldest hit the age where in Maine the amount per week for a child goes up. I went threw a free legal aid center in my area and had them look at the paperwork. they even agreed there is nothing in it.
Can my ex try and take me back to court to have me help pay for the private school? I have medical issues that while not enough to get me on ssdi are enough for my doc to order that I work no more then 24 hours in a week. My take home after tax and what I pay now for CS for the 2 kids a month(which is 268 a month) is bout $600(rest of household income comes form current wife ssdi and step-sons ssi). I have some other issues with the private school but unless I want to try and change the order to give me say in school stuff I can't say that she can't go But if the judge order me to say why I don't like this private school I would not be surprised to get a butt chewing form the judge.
