I filed in June '04 with child support enforcement services. After several court dates with the ex as a no show and his attorneys office giving one excuse after another, they asked to have the case combined with one in Supreme court to deal with money we have in an escrow account. My attorney suggested I agree--the judge would grant it--why delay it. Oct.'05 ex decides to file in family court for downward modification, after he decided on his own to just lower what he pays. After several no shows by the ex and continued excuses from his attorney--the judge dismissed it based on the fact that we have a child support issue pending in Supreme Court. Here we are close to 3 years later, maybe close to a day in front of a judge and ex files in Supreme, the day before we are due in court for downward modification and asks the judge to honor the date he filed in family court in '05
with respect to the arrears. It would be laughable, however the judge told my attorney she feels it "wouldn't be equitable" and would allow it! He owes me $25000.00 in back support. He doesnt pay for any child care, extracurricular, medical etc. NOTHING! What are my options? Does anyone have a case law to support me?
