Question:

A friend recently pointed out to me that my ex has a profile on myspace.com and upon further investigation I am less then happy about what is on it. My ex goes on about how she likes drink and swear and how proud she is that she gets called a tease at least once a week. She has a picture of our son posted in her profile which I am horribly upset about and is also posting pictures of herself in her undergarments. She is claiming to be too ill to work but has posted a comment volunteering to paint a guy's new house because she has so much free time. Theses are just a few of the details I have discovered on her profile and I am very concerned for the environment my son is in and how he is being cared for. I would very much like to bring this information to the attention of the courts, would they take it into consideration and how could I proceed?

Answer:

Allow me to preface my answer to your question with the disclaimer that I am not licensed to practice law in the state of Minnesota. As far as the Court goes, they will consider her conduct, if they find that it is not in the child's best interests to be with her. Is there a maintenance/alimony order in place? If so then you could also use this information to attack her ability to work. It is difficult to say how this will impact your case as this area, the Judge has a lot of discretion.

Question:

My ex of a year and a half has filed for a modification of child support. When we were divorced, she was making $13 an hour, she has since then been fired from two jobs and quit another with the same or more pay. She has now taken a job for a considerable pay cut as she decided to go back to school full time and work part time. Now she tells me it is my responsibility to make sure that she can provide for the kids. Is this right? Also, in our decree my ex was given a car and I took the truck. About six months ago she decided to drop the car off at my house and go buy a new one. The car was in my name but was bought during our marriage and declared to her. She will not pay for the difference on the car for what I sold it at and what we owed, even though she was responsible for the car ($100 per month). Last but not least, we had a combined debt to the IRS. Written in our decree was that she was to make 33% ($60 per month) of the monthly payment, which she now says she can not afford.

Answer:

Allow me to preface my answer to your question with the disclaimer that I am not licensed to practice law in the state of Arizona. Her modification is weak as she has voluntarily decreased her income. You can pursue the other issues in a Motion to Enforce for her to do the terms of the Decree.
