Mr. Knowitall -
Payments aren't being made and when they are it is only to satisfy the court then they stop until the court brings him back in again. He is working, making more than what our household brings in combined in a week. He is paid by cash or personal check and has everyone that he knows feeling sorry for him and that he is the victim of myself and the State of Michigan.
He was told by his probation officer that if he violates that he wouldn't do anything about it because they won't send him to prison and that felony non support is a joke. I was told this as well by the same probation officer and was told that not to call if payments are not made and I was told by the state to call the PO when the payments are not paid so that they can stay on top of him because of his history of paying when convenient to keep him out of trouble.
From what I gather from the FOC it is not up to them to violate him but up to the PO to file the paper work to have him brought in. And I have disclosed the information to the prosecutor and to my attorney BUT if the PO doesn't find in it necessary to violate him then nothing is done.
I find it a waste of state's money to charge him with the felony and it isn't enforced. He can afford 2 attorney's in his defense and still not pay support. He doesn't even bother anymore with seeing my girls it will be a year in Dec. since he last saw them supervised and he didn't even bother to ask the court for the visits back after he came out of jail in Feb.
I don't think that he understands that all he is doing is hurting them and that the bridge that was there between him and the girls - the bridge that he burned down years ago will most likely never be repaired if he doesn't step up and do something. Michigan is all for father's rights and would work with him but he choses not to. If anything, the girls would like an explanation to why he has done what he has done over the years. I know that they don't want involvement but this is still their "bio-dad" and I use that term loosley.
Thanks for the input - -
