I know how you feel, my ex is $21k in arrears, he has been held in contempt AT LEAST 6 times in the past year, 5 bench warrents (once in jail) and yet the prosecutor keeps giving him chances after chances.

GRRRR my sons meds are $155 a month, the cs would really help.  I hate having to ask my DH for help as he pays almost $700 a month for his kids. Luckily cs office was really good when we were under $2k in arrears when we moved (we are now current)

I just don't understand how these mem/woman get so far behind, I can understand a few thousand as life happens that we cannot control sometimes, but come on.

We need to hold these DEADBEAT parents accountable as they make the paying parents get the crap end.

I would agree with Kitty go over the PO's head to the supervisor.

did she file a motion to relocate the child to another state???

What county in WA are your original orders from??

If in Pierce use J Mills, hehe my dh used him and we really like him.

you need to get back to WA and get your son. I would probably suggest hiring and attorney.

I was referred to this attorney by another member from this site who also uses him.  He is great but not sure if he works in King County or not, but you could always call and see.  

Papers would need to be filed in Pierce County

My dh's  atty is in Pierce County and has really good rates and its great. His name is Jay Mills his # 253-284-0802

Let me know if you hire him, I think you will really like him, I was referred to him by another member here at SPARC who actually had 3 bad atty's before hiring Jay.

we have one what county is your court in???

In that state where my case is and my husbands is they can impute the income of the other party on what a male/female of xx age would make on the average (my  husband had to do this on his wife as she has periods where she doesn't work for some reason or another).

I would request another mediator based on a conflict of interest, their is nothing wrong with requesting this.

Best wishes.

I know that my case is in WA state still and I reside in MT and both states I deal with would suspend the license.

Call the cs office and talk with them.

welcome to my world.  My ex is $21k in arrears (my son is 15 1/2) I rarely get cs.

How it started get cs was --calling the support office everyweek for them to file contempt I called 3x a week to both my caseworker and their supervisor.

At 1st I got the well, we can suspend hsi license-yes if he had one, we can put a lien on his bank account, yes if he had one, we can garnish is wages-yes if he worked, we can put a lien on his personal property, yes if he had any.

Sooo finally after a month, they sent to to the state prosecutor, I think they got tired on me.  Now he usually has to go to court every 3 months, if he fails to pay he goes to jail, bond usually is cash to cs.  He has been in jail 2x in 4yrs.  

Sometimes he talks his way out of it, hopefully they ill throw it has him on 2/13/08 I got $33 in Dec and whoooo $18.50 in January

I have tried to tell my ex the importance of cs that I use it for our sons medication which runs be $145 a month ( he has absence seizures otherwise know as petit mal seizures)

So it sucks.  All I can say is he is getting married in July and hope his new wifey knows what she is getting into she has two kids of her own which is sad cuz they got her kids something for xmas and our son NOTHING.  My son told me he does NOT want to go back to homestate where dad still resides for the wedding.  I will leave that upto him.

Good luck.

Be thankful you have the kids, it will catch upto her sooner or later, but I know it is a struggle.
