    Default Does My Ex Have to Pay Half of the Kids' Passport Application Fees

    My question involves a child custody case from the State of: California

    My ex-husband is requesting the childrens passports for their vacation. I'm asking that he pay for half of the passport fee. This has been an ongoing issue with him for a long time now. The passports are something him and I agreed that the children would need since we both have family out of the country. He's told me multiple times that he will pay for half and then never does. The passports are with me because of the court order. I think it's only fair that if he is planning to use the passports that he pay for half. I never requested that the passport fees be a shared cost in the court documents because I never thought he would cause any issues.

    What's my right in this issue?

    Default Re: Passports

    If he was never ordered to pay for the passports, he's not responsible for payment.

    Seriously - withhold the passports and you'll likely face a contempt finding.
