Question I live in NJ. In 2003 I was divorced, In my divorce decree my exhusband was ordered to pay for 50% of our children college tuition which to this day he has not paid. I have spoken to him numerous times about this matter, he has told me that he would come and pick up the receipts for the tuitions and books I have paid for and he has never shown up, I have also asked him for his address so I could mail all documents to him, and he would refuse to give the address to me. Now its about 6 years later and he just filed to have my daughters emancipated, I want to file a cross motion to enforce litigants rights do I stand a chance because its been so long
Answer Judith:
DISCLAIMER:
I AM NOT A LAWYER or ATTORNEY. I am someone who has experience with family law issues, and am sharing my OPINION only. For the exact law as it pertains to your specific case contact a Professional Attorney in your area/county.
I recommend hiring a Professional Attorney: Most Attorneys offer 1/2 free consultation time to discuss case and payment options.
Once hire have Attorney file 'Contempt of court' petition which will include all Filing fees, and Attorney fees. Ask that his wages be garnished util paid in full.
