Ask a Lawyer: Ex-wife flaunting on website and is voluntarily unemployedPosted by Dads Divorce in voluntarily , Visitation , under , Parenting , myspace , MN , interests , employed , custody , child , best , Ask A Lawyer |
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.
