What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? KY
i was ordered by the court to pay $500 per month temp support,
this order was back dated to the time i originally filed so i owe my soon to be x wife $3500.00,
i have been paying her at the rate of $500.00 per month and have recently recived a summons to court saying that i am in contempt of court concerning the temp maintenance,
and that i should have paid my wife a lump sum payment and not in instalments as i have been paying,
on the original court order it does not say that i had to pay the back dated support in a lump sum ,
i am not a rich man and do not have the funds to pay this supprt payment in a lump sum,
,if i am found in contempt what is likely to happen?
