Facts:
Have a 12 year old daughter from brief encounter with BM, found out 2 years ago, agreed to Back Support of $7000 plus braces. 7K is being paid over 24 months plus monthly support and will be paid in full by OCT 04. Just had Tax Return intercepted inspite of all retro payments being made on time and in full, another story however. Order is from Colorado, BM and Daughter live in Illinois.

 BM is complaining that Braces are wanted (but not medically necessary, wants teeth fixed before future class pics) and threatening a trip back to court to force the braces issue. I need some financial breathing room (post OCT if possible. No time deadline was specified in Order for braces, just that I would provide them, something I have no problem with. BM knows how to raise cain with the CSE sytem, very adept at causing much drama.

 BM has lots of time on hand, (no job necessary)seeing she is getting my check plus another from someone else for different child, food stamps, WIC, SSI, EITC Sec. 8 Apartment and who knows what else.

Questions:
 1) Does the absence of specific time line mean the braces are to be made available on BM demands, even if not medically necessary?

 2)Can I ask that BM take Daughter to Orthodontist compatible with my insurance or can BM "demand" that I go where its convenient for her?

3) Can Court send Daughter to any Orthodontist for treatment at any cost and send me the bill?

4) How do I defend myself against BM's drama claiming I am not being cooperative inspite of complying with the Support Order? Can I simply ask for a few more months to get it set up?
Thanks Soc, your comments are greatly appreciated by all!
