Hello,
Just curious as to how the court might consider costs. Of course I am seeking costs and, if awarded, could be quite substantial. My ex doesn't work, and her family has been paying for all of her legal bills. They can easily afford it, but obviously aren't directly involved with the case.
Assuming costs are awarded, is it a legal amount owing, regardless of income? Are there collection options? Small claims (assuming less than the threshold)?
Are there any things to consider while bringing it up in court that might impact the collection? I'm concerned that someone not working can drive up the other party's costs deliberately, and get off scott free.
Thoughts?
