    Angry Felony Warrant for Nonpayment of Support

    My question involves child support in the State of: ohio

    My husband and I have been together for almost 11 years. I have children outside of the relationship from prior relationships, as does he.
    His children from the previous relationship are now 20 and 18. The 20 year old, who has NEVER lived with their mother live houses away and we talk often. The 18 year old stayed with the mother. by the time they were 3-5, she was heavy into drugs and moved the children to virginia. The mothers family realized how drug addicted she was and asked for custody of the oldest and was granted custody. The mother had already filed for child support in ohio, and then filed again in virginia. My husband was able to see his daughter whenever he wanted and went to visit the younger one 6 times a year as she would not send him here. then until now mother has been on assistance (in both states) which included, section 8, food stamps, medical, and cash benefits. many men came in and out of her lives throughout the years, but both children always knew who dad was.
    She moved back when the younger child was 11. She was so addicted, she couldnt do it by herself. (by this time had another child) she started keeping the child from my husband. or trying, the child wasnt having it. she was getting beat up by an abusive boyfriend. heavily addicted to drugs(cocaine). her children were failing school because they were not going, she couldnt get up to send them off. they were getting in trouble in and out of school. they were not staying active or even eating right.
    it wasnt long before he would run away to come to our house for the stability, but would go back often because he was scared for his little sister. (many times they would both come over)
    please remember he was paying child support, 300/month, even when he knew that money was going to the drugs. we would still have to buy his clothes, shoes, activities etc. all of these things and situations were conveyed to the courts and the CSEA, but nothing was ever done.
    they never talked to the child, and when she was asked of course none of this was going on, and she had "possession"?!?!? of the child.
    finally he was in our custody on a full time basis, we got him in school, got him back on the right track playing football and having constant stability.
    there has been no modification of support order, of custody, and NO ONE WILL LISTEN!!!!
    My husband refuses to pay another penny to her, or her habit. it has been 8 years he has been with us. not once has she said anything about not getting her support, until 6 months ago. now my husband has a felony warrant for non payment looming over his head.
    He is a good father, good husband, good person. He is a volunteer coach in multiple sports in the community. He went back to school last year to widen his education experience. We also have 2 children together, who dont need to have the situation of their father going to jail for "not taking care of his kids"
    <whew>
    here are the questions
    Where do we go when no one will listen?
    why is there really no support for non custodial parents?
    why do the courts not listen to the children?
    noone ever...has sat down with him and went through the WHOLE case.
    as I said, I also have other children. My childrens father is 30,000 in the hole. NOTHING HAS EVER BEEN DONE!! I get checks for 3 cents, 7 cents, and I am not kidding. I honestly believe child enforcement break families up. job assurance. Its a joke.

    If he doesn't pay his court ordered support, your husband will end up in jail.

    I care not what you say, if this child was living in such deplorable conditions, no GOOD parent abdicates his responsibility to a GRANDPARENT. He was able to see the kids whenever he WANTED? He should have been seeing them EVERY DAY. If one parent isn't available, then the other parent needs to put his wife on a shelf and RAISE HIS KIDS.

    Oh.. and you speak of $300/mo like it's a million dollars. It's $75 a week. Your husband can hire an attorney if he seems to be getting nowhere.

    I do understand the wonder about the situation. He many times tried to get custody of the children. And was seeing them everyday. We are a team. and we together were raising those children, along with one that wasnt even ours. and you know if we would have just taken them out of the home, that would be kidnapping. hence why we worked so hard in getting him to stay with us. She realized we wouldnt back down. and really that what she wanted. its what was best for him. He will be a freshman at OSU this fall and is graduating high school this weekend with a 3.8 GPA. His oldest daughter, graduated 2 years ago with a full scholarship to a top art school in town. I am very proud of how everyone has rebounded from this tragic start, but the question still remains....is there anyone...INCLUDING lawyers who will sit down and get the whole story?

    All he needs to do is call an attorney. If you pay their consultation fee, they'll listen to the whole story.

    The custody of said child number one was given when she was out of state. We had no clue of change of custody until grandmother returned with daughter. we all together raised her as well, with them living 3 houses down, as I said we see each other often.

    We have been calling lawyers, its been hard trying to find one that will. Even with the fee paid. We dont want some hobo lawyer as we know this will take some time to sort through. Just not many out there that even have the experience in this situation. But I guess each story is different. ideally we would love for her to get help and be a good mother to her children. they miss her.

    Well the last thing you want is a lawyer that trolls internet message boards for clients. There's nothing we can do for you here. I personally know of a few family law attorneys in Ohio, so they're out there. Maybe not ones that tell your husband what he wants to hear, but there are many out there.
