Dear Attorneys,
My ex-wife is incarcerated and she filed a post-judgment motion to modify child support because she obviously can’t pay it. I will agree to that going forward, as I understand that she does not currently have the means, and I am able to support my children. However, our court date keeps getting pushed out and I don’t have a lawyer, so I don’t know who to contact. What do I do?
Sincerely,
Ceasing Support
Dear Ceasing,
That’s great that you recognize that you are in a position to provide for your children, and your ex-wife is not. If you do not have a lawyer, and you are confused about court dates, you should contact the Clerk’s Office at the courthouse where your matter is filed. Since your ex-wife is incarcerated, it can make scheduling court dates more difficult. However, if you let the Clerk’s Office know that you have an agreement, they may be able to assist you, and it may make scheduling easier.
