Question:
Due to an unfortunate series of events, an Indiana Father of two - 10 and 13 - has had to start new career outside of medical field he was a part of for 22 yrs. Now he is making less than his ex-spouse, but still paying child support, although somewhat reduced recently as to the amount. But he is now several months behind in mortgage payments for his own home. The children live there more than 50% of the time. The court has found the Father to be in contempt for putting a roof over his own kids head rather than staying current to the ex-spouse who is making considerably more income. What should I do?. I'm about to lose my home. I was told by the prosecuting atty. that I had better stay current.
Answer:
If the support has been modified and is within your State's guidelines for the calculation of child support there is little else to do legally. You may want to look at the debt consolidation and counseling specialists.
