What is the name of your state? FL


I'm a pro se respondent in a custody suit. We got an order last year and I would like to get part of it changed. The Petitioner filed bankruptcy and I no longer want my name on a joint account that we're supposed to have to hold a little money that is for the kids' benefit.

Since we've shared custody equally for more than two years, and he's already stipulated that he kept all of the state adoption support payments, to the tune of more than $17,000, I want to just ask the judge to let us close the joint account and give me the $1800 in it, and further, to change the payee for the state funds from him to me. They are already earmarked for specific purposes each month now, so that's largely an administrative adjustment that won't affect anyone's cash on hand. But he's looking pretty crooked with this BK, so I'm just kinda leery and don't want the college payments to suddenly stop, or any other such thing, since he's presently in charge of the disbursements.

I don't know what kind of motion all that oughta be. To Compel? Any suggestions?
