Quick synopsis:
First motion heard and "spousal support" ordered. Second motion, quickly thereafter at which time children ordered back into my care - NO spousal support but child support ordered.
Sooooo, I get a "hot under the collar" email from the ex. screaming hell because they are going to garnishee his wages from his employer for the spousal support - he did in fact make the required payments. I did not ever receive anything from the FRO to date and have been patiently waiting for the papers, but only for the child support.
So, who do I contact at the FRO about this? Do I need to have the court file #? Is there a number on the paper he received that I can refer to to get this garnishment stopped? Trust me, should the FRO garnish his wages for this "spousal" amount he is gonna be some angry and I can hardly blame him! He made the required payments faithfully! But I would be afraid to sign a release form because then I am afraid they would take that and apply it to the latest court order and I DO want child support to come from the FRO (you see, Canada Post losses cheques/ he ran out of cheques/employer deposited funds into the wrong bank account yada yada yada). I would rather have the garnishment to avoid having to call each month to find out if/when he is sending payment. He will pay, but on his terms only. Refuses to give postdated cheques so this seems to be by recourse to avoid conflict. But in NO WAY do I want him to have to suffer the nighmare circumstances I have read that others have had to face.
So, is there a way this order, the first one, be cancelled fast (first garnishment Nov. 01) and are there other ways people have been able to do this amicably without having to resort to the FRO? Any suggestions to give the ex?
