Q: Just year and a half ago I was ordered to pay child support. My ex stated that she makes less money because she changed work, which is lie, but how can I prove it if she works off books. I compromised my work to spent more time with my daughter, so she doesn't have to pay for nanny (2 times a week and every second Saturday), and I also agreed to pay for Saturday school. In this case I 'll have to resign from my promises, because I won't be able to support everything. She wants me to pay for everything extra, even for her nanny, because she doesn't have time to take care of our daughter. Now i pay nearly 25% of my income for one child, and the court doesn't care about my involvement in rising our child.
A: David's Answer: The issue is that generally you only have a right to have a trial once, and you would've had the obligation to present evidence of her lie at that time. If you didn't ask for the proper disclosure at the time, it may be too late now to have, essentially, a re-trial on the same issue. The question really becomes whether the court is taking out too much relative to your pay.
