Hello,
Question about child custody. My fiancé hasn't seen his children from his previous marriage in about 4 years. His ex wife and him got a divorce last November but since he travels a lot for work he missed the custody trial. She has lived in New York this whole time and he in Arizona. We have tried to do everything possible to see if there is anything we can do so he can visit his children or have them for sometime here in Arizona but the Arizona Court told us since the children do not reside here they have no jurisdiction over them. We also tried to see if there was any possible way to lower the child support payment because we also have a child and another on the way and they told us that they had no control child support in another state even though his ex wife ask the State of Arizona for help to enforce child support and spousal maintenance. I need some guidance on what we can do at this point since full custody was granted to her and we are paying all of this money to her and for their children but we would like the children to have their father in their lives.
