Ten Ways of Defense for Contempt for Non Payment

March 14, 2011 By Leave a Comment

By Dennis Gac -

If you get hit with a contempt of court for non-payment of child support, there are several defenses you can offer if indeed you are truly unable to pay and not merely ignoring the court order. Here are ten defenses you can offer the court that can help your case.

  1. First, they need to understand it is not “willful” on your part. Meaning your circumstances have dictated your lack of payment.
  2. Always pay something. You want to be inconsistent with payments to show a struggle, but make some payment no matter how small.
  3. Bring a properly written response to court with you clearly outlining your defense.
  4. Provide proof of payment by way of check receipts and a past due payment plan.
  5. Be prepared to file for a Child Support Modification plan if it is a long term situation and tell the judge what you are planning to do.
  6. Be respectful and humble. Don’t be belligerent or angry. It won’t help anything at all.
  7. Offer a calm defense. The other side is going to do their best to shake you and may even lie. Stay on track and present your defense.
  8. Document why you cannot pay such as documents from work showing cut back hours, a letter stating you have been laid off, etc.
  9. If it is a medical reason, have copies of all your medical records with you proving the problem.
  10. Most often, you will not end up in jail like everyone thinks, but it can happen. Do not panic if it does! Don’t gather up the money from friends and relatives to “pay up”. This just shows you can really pay if threatened with jail.

Suspended Licenses and Child Support Payments

September 28, 2010 By Leave a Comment

By Dennis Gac -

One of the things that can happen if you fail to pay your child support payments is that you could end up with having various licenses revoked. This includes not only you driver’s license, but any business or professional licenses you may have as well. This is a result of the Child Support Recovery Act set in place in 1992. There are some things you should know to prevent this and if it does happen.

A contempt of court order for nonpayment can result in having your license revoked, but it doesn’t always happen immediately. Usually there are mitigating circumstances such as you don’t show up for or do not respond to a hearing. Always respond in written form to any type of hearing notice, to verify you know it is taking place.

Never ignore collection notices. Make some type of payment no matter how small. If you are trying to get your license reinstated, you will need to have made a payment and you must also have a payment plan on how you are going to make the up the payments.

Even if your driver license or professional license gets revoked if you follow the above – make a plan, respond in writing, and make a payment – more often than not you will be able to get your licenses reinstated. Be prepared, stay calm and think things through. Your ex-wife is going to use whatever she can to try and get you in trouble and cause problems, but you can handle these simple things if you stay calm.

Understanding False Allegations of Domestic Violence and Abuse and Your Rights Against Them

August 12, 2010 By Leave a Comment

By Dennis Gac -

This day and age, women know that if they scream “abuse” to the court systems, they will automatically get temporary custody of the kids until the issue goes to court. This can happen at any time, whether it be during a separation, divorce case, or even out of the blue if you obtained custody in courts and all of a sudden, she decides that she wants it back. But don’t let false allegations get you down-you can fight it, and it’s important to know the technicalities involved.

First off, demand proof. Even though what your wife is doing is essentially hearsay, a Judge will still strongly consider any emergency ex parte restraining order that comes across their desk. Abuse and violence, when it comes to kids, is something that shouldn’t’ be taken lightly, but if you do not make a statement against her initial complaint, you may look guilty. But at the same time, fighting too hard makes you look like you’re covering it up. If the abuse or violence issue is an underlying issue of a divorce case, don’t let it throw you off track. State that you did not commit such issues, that there is no proof, and move forward with the divorce case. There is a fine line between looking guilty and looking like you don’t care. Tread forward lightly with any allegations of abuse.

Know your rights and responsibilities when it comes to restraining orders. If your ex-wife has a temporary restraining order against you, but calls you up and says she’s coming over to drop off/pick up some of the children’s things, don’t fall for it-this can put you in violation of the court order, which she could use against you.

And last, consider fighting back. If the allegations are false, sue your ex, her attorney, and anyone else involved for defamation of character. This might be enough to get your ex-wife to back off and no longer pursue the issue. More of a scare tactic than anything, but has been very effective for fathers in the past facing similar issues.

Finding Success in Fathers Rights, Even With a Negative Society Around You

July 30, 2010 By Leave a Comment

It’s a common phrase, “Deadbeat Dads.” But even so, the table has turned. Now, you’re hearing more about “Deadbeat Moms” and are even seeing situations where fathers are stepping up and taking control and custody of their children.

Over the years, society has continually focused on the mothers. Mothers always get the kids, mothers always get child support, mothers are automatically rewarded custody in family court. But with the growing number of fathers becoming aware of their rights in their divorce and custody cases, fathers are increasingly receiving joint, even FULL custody of their children in divorce court settlements. Even with the negative stigma that surrounds fathers and their children, fathers’ rights have brought so-called “Deadbeat Dads” to the other side of the table-even in some cases, making them the saving grace in their children’s lives (case in point, Kevin Federline and Brittany Spears).

It is so important to understand that there is hope when fighting for your rights to your children as a father. No longer is it “understood” that the mother is a better caregiver and nurturer for your children. You are just as much of a parent as their mother, and even though the courts are very one-sided when it comes to mother versus father as the primary caregiver of children, you can easily turn the tables and receive custody with a few simple tips and tricks up your sleeve to show your ex is not quite the saint that everyone thinks she is. Instead of going into court with verbal assaults and anger, it’s important to gather the appropriate information and know what you’re fighting for in order to win against your ex-even without an attorney.
