Question by aneagle_whensheflies: How can I get the court judges to make my X husband follow the court orders of our divorce decree? Child Custody--I have full custody of all 5 of our minor children. Vistation of Children--He is to visit from 12 to 4 on Saturday's or as we mutally agree! He is to pay $ 375.00 per week support for me and the children through the Child Support Bureau. He is behind over $ 61,000.00 in child support! The Child Support Attorney for my County in Ohio requested the court impose the 30 days of suppended jail sentence but on the date that the imposition was to be heard he filed a motion to request emerangecy custody of 3 of the 5 children. Even though he mutally agreed that 2 of the children could reside with him; and were; they all had been going to the same school since November of 2005. Because I was the guardian and residential parent all 5 Ohio law requires that all go to the school the custiodian and or guardian resides in. The decree has been final for over 2 years but he doesn't want to go to jail so he is filing everything. How does vitims of abuse get stability when judges do th> Best answer:

I am not familiar with the Child Support Enforcement laws in Ohio, but apart from criminal solutions (which is what the prosecutor will be doing) you may look to some civil solutions. You should look to modify your divorce/custody agreement to reflect our current situation. I am not sure about your particular area, but if you dont have legal represetation at the current time you really need to get it. As a victim of abuse, depending on your income level, you may be eligible for free representation from a Legal Services facility in your area. You should be able to find their number in the yellow pages or by running an internet search for "Legal Services" in your area. As for child support, it depends on whether he is simply not paying, or whether he is not working. If he is to go to jail, this will provide the state with an opportunity to organize and hopefully enter a judgment whereby his wages can be garnished. You really need to get legal representation if you do not have it already.
