Same in wi. Only there is a delay of bureaucratic processing time before the ex spouse receives the payment. Totally because of the state bureaucrats.
The state hopes by doing so to increase whatever animosity exists between the two ex spouses. Furthering family court time and thereby enriching the family court system.
There used to be a female judge in NYC who kept toothbrushes on her bench in a mug—for the guys who lost the case and had to go to Rikers Island. I think they do that only if the woman agrees to it, and I think she is gone now. Sued for assault maybe.
