Hi Guys,
It has been a while since I have been here, but I am back in court again. A Motion to change.
Thank you in advance for your help
Ex is making a lot more than she was at Trial. In 2018 one child is with me 100%, two children 50/50. As time goes on they all move in with me 100%. Ex is unreasonable so we have to file a Motion to Change. I just got her reply and she is stating that one child lives with her 100% and one is 50/50. The third is now an adult.
My question is, what is some evidence I can use to prove that they live with me. Apparently the court does not like a child to state where they live, even if that child is 21. Can a child, who is no longer a child of the marriage, be a witness? I have a friend and my mother, but I imagine there is not a lot of weight there. I am thinking of contacting an ex-girlfriend. (Is that worth it?).
Here is a list of people I am thinking of:
A friend of my 21 year old. (She is also 21)
The boyfriend of my 21 year old (He is 22)
A mother of a friend of my 16 year old. (She is a friend of my ex, not that close I don't think)
My ex's father (I'm still pondering this one, I don't think he would lie, but who knows. How should I approach this? Have a 3rd party ask if he would testify?)
Is there anyone on this list that I shouldn't ask? How should I approach the people I would like to ask? I am thinking of asking the 16 year old's Vice Principal and asking what his understanding of the living arrangement is. (should I do this?)
I have a text message of my ex admitting that the 16 year old lives with me, but she is going to argue that the 21 year old lives with her 50% (This is the child that she states lives with her full time in her response). Is that worth anything?
Any other ideas of how I can get proof? Has anyone else had to deal with this?
