Just an update

Well, I saw my attorney today since BD, or DB (douchebag...I kinda like that better) pretty much refuses to help support his kid unless I drop the existing child support order that's still ON HOLD because he was in jail.  Fucker didn't even get her a damn gallon of milk last week when I asked him to.  So, since she was born 15 months ago I've pretty much received no help from him financially.  Since he doesn't want to pay I refuse to let him see her.  Legally, I don't have to since there is still a no contact order in place that lasts 2 years, I have sole legal and physical custody, and there is not yet a visitation order in place.  

According to my attorney, the original support order can now be enforced so he notified Friend of the Court.  He also drafted a new motion to amend the original support order since they totally screwed up on the amount he makes ($8 vs $14 plus lots of OT) and our transitional medicaid ran out so my health insurance went up $200 a month.  The best part...if he and his attorney object to the new order if/when it goes into play then they will probably have to pay my attorney's fees.  Today was the first time I've actually appreciated my attorney.  

While I believe 100% that both parents should have to pay for their offspring, not getting support is especially hard for me right now because, being type-1 diabetic, the medication that literally keeps me alive costs over $150 a month with my insurance alone. Not much corner cutting I can do there.  

Anyhoo, DB is gonna be PIIISSSSSED when he starts getting hit for support by the state.  Oooh, to be a fly on the wall when that happens.  :D :D:D

    Good for you. You deserve the money. It's a necessity and his responsibility. Good luck

    Thanks! I went in to pick up DD after work and the girl at the desk said she had a receipt for me. Huh? He went in and paid a week and a half of her day care bill for the first time ever. That's nice that he wants to pay it twice!

    Good for you. I can't fucking wait til I have to put her in daycare and his CS goes up times three. He can bitch all he wants now and not pay and whatever, but he will be hating life at that point. Might just have to get a real J O B or a roommate in that big ol empty house of his or something. Poor baby.
