Dad's rights after 11 years

[Starsol1122]

Dad might be starting this for the wrong reasons...But it could still work out well. I hope so.

Good Luck OP...Hope this works out well for your son.

Thank you for your positive input... I have never been against father and son having a relationship if anything I have always encouraged it... But it always ended at good intentions with no follow up... So my son is at the point where he doesn't really care if dad calls or not. To top it off father blames me for this... But I do my job as a good mom.... And never ever talk bad about his father ... My sons opinions have been made by his own experiences with his father not by my influence... Sadly dad doesn't see that .

So the child support agency sent dad a proposed amount and he wants to appeal it...
Does anyone know how much time he has to appeal the proposed amount ?? And what happens if he neither agrees or appeals? When does the state basically come in and make the decision for him?
Thanks!

Oh the State will decide eventually. He won't have a choice about it.

What's the basis of his appeal?

Right now he hasn't formerly appealed yet ... But he said the amount was too high and he has other kids to support... So I'm assuming that's what he will use for the appeal

Does he have COURT ORDERED support? Do they live with him?

 

[Starsol1122]

Does he have COURT ORDERED support? Do they live with him?

he may get a deviation. he may not. assuming he has a two income home. what i have seen is the judge ask what does the respondent thinks he can pay and works from there.

Do you think that the fact that in 11 years he hasn't supported his child will weigh in on the judges decision? The father said he could pay 300 the amount proposed is 625

No. There's never been a support order, till the one in negotiation now.

like i said....that could go both ways.

he might meet dad halfway and say $475.

i know in my situation, the dad was ordered to pay $465 WITH visitation. WITH him having full custody of one child and my having custody of the other. but the dad pleaded he was getting evicted and couldn't afford to pay child support. finally, the judge asked him what he could pay....the dad threw $300 out. and that was what was ordered.
