As per my court order from 2009, my ex is required to provide me with school records and medical records for my child. I am required to provide ex with my tax assessment.
I have not provided ex with my assessment but since 2009 have lost my job and am making significantly less but still paying support on old amount Since the order in 2009 I have had no contact with ex or my child but for a voice mail left by the ex within a week of the order advising me that if I want any information I can go through her lawyer. Then a month later a voice mail telling me she is giving up custody to children's aid. Custody was returned to ex within a year. Via children's aid I learned that my child has failed all classes that year, in fact, part of the reason children's aid was involved with because of truancy.
My child is now almost 19 and not in post secondary school. I send a request to FRO to stop payments but ex advised she still feels entitled to the cs.
I want to ask for disclosure of the school and medical records I am entitled to prior to retaining a lawyer so that I have proof of marks and attendence. How do I request this info so that I have a paper trail of having done so in case this goes to court, as it will since ex is entitled to legal aid is drags everything out.
Secondly, now that my child is 19 can I realisitcally expect to stop paying based on non attendence in post secondary, poor marks, non attendance, etc in high school. Not having graduated from high school. I don't mind continuing cs if there was some hope for my child to finally smarten up and try to achieve something in life. Right now I don't feel I should pay for a bum and this is the same way I would feel even if I had custody. If you don't want to go to school and learn, get a job. That's the way I was raised. I went to school and had a job on top of that and that's what I expect of my children, of course the law is different.
Can someone offer me some insight based on their own examples.
