I have been divorced for 5 years and I have custody of my child. My ex-h continuously threatens, bullies and harasses me in violation of our court order. He is now apparently filing an application for a variation to the provisions of the court order, particularly with respect to custody and support. I only receive the Federal Guideline amount of child support from him but he says that there is a significant change in my material circumstances because my fiancee is now living with me and we are getting married later this year.
Can he legally make changes to the order? The original long and nasty court battle to obtain the current order cost me a significant amount of money and I do not want to incur any more legal costs. I have been contacted by my ex's lawyer asking for my legal counsel's contact information, but I don't wish to retain counsel unless I can go after my ex for my legal costs if he drags me into court.
The constant emails and telephone calls both at home and at work from my ex are becoming too much for me and I'm considering trying to get a restraining order against him in order to finally enforce the contact provisions of the court order!
I feel like I'm being forced into incurring a great expense again and I'm finding it incredibly stressful, especially given my pending wedding and my fiancee's issues with his ex too!
Can anyone offer advice or a course of action?????
