Husband has a child, 18. Will be graduating HS this summer. Divorced when the boy was an infant. Child support never ordered. Has not seen the child since the 5th birthday.
Now, we are receiving the court docs for retro child support and health care coverage. We have asked for a delay and received it until February.
Even though the child is about to be emancipated will my husband still be ordered to pay?
The ex wife was married for all of the childs life and is no longer. She has moved back home with her mother (with the boy).
How far back can this retro support go? We do not have health coverage for ourselves because we cannot afford it...we certainly cannot afford to pay for a child. (we have no children)
Right now there is no feasible way that we can even hire an attorney. I am trying to contact legal aid right now. But with the holidays I can get no where.
Also, can the courts order me (current wife) to have paying responsibilities in this matter?
She is in Tenn and we are in Florida.
