I think it's important for things to go to trial more often and fathers especially not to compromise on custody matters. Times are changing but we need as much case law showing lawyers that their male clients have a good chance of getting shared and even sole custody.
Hang in there, you are doing the community a service.

well done. Keep in mind minimum wage is going to raise to $14 / hour, if it already hasn't.
I figured they wouldn't cut off access. I suppose she could max out credit cards and loans and return to expand access.
Nice to see you don't have to go through her to travel. Enjoy your next vacation!

Great news. I like that the order graduated upwards in amount she pays you (imputed income). This will now likely continue indefinitely.... every time she takes you to court (haha).
This one has 'vexatious litigant' written all over it. That is a good thing for you.
Enjoy your summer!

but honestly, it does not feel like I achieved anything here... I wish her to do the right thing and move forward and out of the court but it seems more and more that it not going to happen anytime soon if ever...
court keep giving her chance after chance after chance when it clear that she is not going to do what she suppose to. If we were to switch places the would kick me out from court long time ago ...
