Ok this is a long and drawn out, so please bear with me.
My son's father and I went to court Feb 7, 2007. We submitted a form 14 for child support (state of missouri) with what I believed to be correct information regarding income, etc. Using this info it came to $575/month and my ex complained that he couldn't afford that amount per month. So I agreed to drop it to $500/month.
I later found out that in Jan 15, 2007 he had been hired at a different position within the large company that he works with and received a payraise (i don't know how much of raise, since he's not willingly turning over that information). Isn't that perjury? He signed a court document stating the information was true.
Here is my other issue, I spend 6 hours on the road, round-trip, each wknd to transport my son to the meeting point, so his father gets his visitation. I also spend $80 in gas every wknd. I don't have a problem doing this, since its in my court agreement. The problem I have, is that my ex is NEVER there for drop off or p/u. He always has someone in his family doing it. He also leaves my son with his parents the majority of the time while my son is there visiting HIM, including over night.
Should i go back to court and ask for the childsupport to be refigured with his correct information? Here's the only catch, I make more money now, not much, just my yearly raise has come around since the judgement. So my ex is now wanting to have my current income and info, so he can ask for modification .
I know this is a lot, but is it worth it to go to court about his lying and risk having my support modified in his favor. Or should I just ask the court to have it onfile that he lied about it for future reference? Any advice at all would be MUCH appreciated.
