What is the name of your state?NY. I am returning to court after 6 yrs for request of upward modification of CS. Currently, the father(non cust) pays our agreed amount which is Lower than was state minimum required. Back then, he said he'd "stop being difficult & putting kids in middle" if I agreed to less per month and for only 10 mos out of year....Well that agmt also says he "shall contribute toward Extra Curricular activites" if I ask & "he is ABLE"....he has never contributed...not because of being unable, but doesn't want to. Is this enough "change of circumstance" to now ask that he pay the state minimum required because he refuses to contribute??? What would my alternative reason be?? Does it have to be a change of circumstance if I am only asking what is required by the state for the children?? The extra curriculars are getting pretty hefty!! I feel bad that I bartered what was rightfully my children's, at the hope of what I thought a "peace offering"...boy was I wrong.
