Is that even legal?

Today, it's the third time my ex has been granted a reduction in his child support payments coinciding with his gold digger getting an expensive gift. The first time it was her 4-carat engagement ring, then it was her breast and butt surgeries, and now a 3-week trip to Hawaii. I can barely afford food for our kids. FML

It’s skirting the law. You need to get his financials and if you can get proof that he paid for all these unnecessary expensive items, take them and check with a lawyer at the free clinic. They give out the advice for free and can either take the case for cheap or pro bono or refer you to one. Also get child support and collections involved and if you can apply for welfare and food support. There are also places through United Way First Call for Help that can help you.

Child support is usually based on income. I'm not understanding how that can happen 3 times. Were you in court? Do you have a lawyer?

Maybe you shoulda gotten the breast and butt surgeries when you were still a going concern.

you need to collect evidence of all of this and bring it to court. could bring your payments higher than they were to start. he's a piece of shit.

I hear you. My ex likes to get his supoort lowered, then immediately get a better job. Then after I wait the required 6 months to get a new hearing, he quits that job axwerk orvtwo before the new hearing to avoid his supoort being increased. Then right after the hearing we start the cycle again.
