Texas child support questions

state is tX

was with my bf for 1 year and went to court and setup child support (not to be taken from his chk etc). we lived together for about 3 years after the ppwk was setup. he helped with bills, rent etc. we went our seperate ways (about 2-3 yrs ago) and has been giving me 3x the amt agreed on the ppwk ever since. can I take him for back pay when he was living with me?

also can I get an increase in $$ even though he's been giving me 3 times the amt as agreed on the ppwk?

he states he has receipts dated since the split, will that favor him?

any suggestions will help

You're kidding, right? The guy is voluntarily paying you three times the agreed rate, and you want to stick it to him? The most likely outcome of your plan would be that you would immediately start receiving only the agreed amount.

no i do not want to stick it to him. im just wondering if he has any leverage if i decide to take him to court. also, he's had insurance coverage since day one on my daughter etc.

also, with the receipts, is this leverage for him? again i just wanted something in writing in case if he left. and now i feel as if im not getting enough to support my daughter.

thanks for all of your information

just making sure im not setting myself up if i decide to take him to court. he's had insurance on her since day one. i just need to know if he can get me for backup since he's been giving me so much. also will the receipts play a role in his favor?

so I cannot get him for back pay for the time that he was living with me even though the ppwk was in effect, but he was helping out with bills etc.

thanks for all your help.

He would only need to present proof of payment if you lied and denied receiving the payment. If that were to happen and he proved he had voluntarily paid far more than he was ordered to pay, you would look very foolish in court.

If you tell the truth, the court will likely view the overpayment as a gift. If you were to try to stick it to him for support from a period when you were living together, despite his generosity, the court would consider both the fact that he was offering direct support and his subsequent generosity, and find that there is no arrearage.

Sounds to me like you are a money grubbing person. Think about it....why ruin a mna's financial life after he has been good to you? I have more respect for anna nicole smith than for you. we all know that anna was in for the money. but at least she waited until the man died naturally before she got a hold of his money. you on the other hand want to enrich yourself on the expense and hardships of others
