My ex won custody of our 2 children in 2001. In August of 2005 my ex offered to let my current husband adopt our children in an open adoption agreement, as long as i paid the attorney. We agreed and the children have been living with us for almost 3 1/2 years. However i can't pay for the attorney because i am supporting the children since they live with me plus i am still paying my ex $300 per month for current child support and $60 per month for back child support, until the adoption is complete. So i am in a bad catch 22, i can't afford to pay the attorney while paying child support but the child support won't stop until the adoption is complete and the attorney won't file the paper work until i pay him. Is there anyway that i can sue my ex for collecting the (current) child support so i can get that money back. He has collected over $12000.00 in 3 1/2 years from me and we can't even afford to live with out food stamps. Even though my husband and i both work steady jobs
