Here's the deal:
1) First Appearance Done - Scheduled Case Conference
2) Received Response from X where she DIDN'T include financials even though my Motion is to Change Child Support due to lower Annual Income
I was fired from my job from my Mother (family business) back in Feb 2010 - I was making $70K. Child Support in Separation Agreement was established at $1,000 even though at the time I was unemployed. C/S begins after sale of matorminal home which was Oct 1, 2010. In August 2010 I got a job making $43,000, I applied to over 300 jobs and this is all I could find.
3) In response X tells me I an underemploying myself even though I included Termination Letter from Parents (Mother was upset about separation, now I don't have any relations with my parents beause of this), and the correspondence of emails and applications for over 300 jobs. Tells me I make $68,000K with no proof whatsoever.
4) Meanwhile X bought a house at $290,000 after our house sold, I gave her 100% of everything. Probably put $50K down but she ONLY works part-time still, stocking shelves at a local grocery store. Tells me there are no jobs where she lives. I figure she is voluntary unemploying herself and expects me to continue paying her $1,000 so her mortgage is covered.
5) Also X is going for sole custody. In the separation agreement signed in June 2010, drafted by HER LAWYER, I signed without Legal Counsel, it is Joint Custody and I see the kids alternating weekends and one day during the week. No history of violence, no drinking, no drugs, no spousal abuse, just a marriage that fell apart. Always been there for my kids.
6) X wants me to pay for her legal fees.
7) X putting me on FRO (obviously me paying her on time is not enough) so I figure ok you want to be in the waiting room for your cheque? Go ahead. Don't blame me when you don't get paid for months since FRO is a disaster.
So now, going to get a lawyer for the case conference. Also how do I get her to submit her financials? She does esthetics on the side, I know because I paid for all the equipment. If she can make claims against my income, I surely should ask her about hers.
Can she get sole custody? I don't think so. Best interest of the kids is BOTH parents.
