So the guy gets thrown in jail, looses what job he has, still can’t pay goes back to jail. Gets out, has no job goes back in. Round and round. Something is wrong with that system. Some one told me it’s not because a person can’t or won’t pay, it’s because they defied a court order.
He actually had the audacity to petition the court to have his child support reduced - retroactive to when he stopped paying.......
The woman sought out an attorney to represent her but it was going to cost her approx. $3,000 UP FRONT....she of course didn't have the money so she was on her own. I don't know what happened beyond that point because we stopped seeing each other.
As a side note, the ex-husband had visitation rights on weekends. Unfortunately, he was an alcoholic and all he would do while the daughter was with him was drink at home or take her to the VFW with him. In either case, he'd ultimately get stumbling drunk and pass out at home.......The poor daughter was becoming a wreck.
There are no easy solutions in divorces and every case is different. But if a guy has a child then he has a financial obligation to provide the support the court orders........
