I applied for CS 6 mos ago and went to an appointment (required) 4 mos ago to tell them and show them exactly the same things I had to provide when I applied- yet they say if you don't go to the appointment, they won't put the case thru. OK. This afternoon I called to give them my new address for my filing CS and for them to contact me because I know they need to establish the amount for me to pay while difficult child is in Department of Juvenile Justice. And while on the phone, I asked the status of my claim against difficult child's father. Nothing. They have done N.O.T.H.I.N.G.
That was the calmest I ever tried to be while speaking my mind to someone but I have to tell you, it really rubs me the wrong way that this man can just walk away for 15 1/2 years while I support this child and they don't care. They don't care that it's me that has shown up in court, hired attnys paid restitution for difficult child (although some is still owed, the majority of about $5000 total is paid), and after losing my home, career, etc and diligently paying his CS which was calculated as me making min wage even though I was unemployed and filing BK while he was in Department of Juvenile Justice last year, they immediately file against me again this year and although they now will file again against difficult child's father, they NEVER have gone after him to actually pay. He's breaking the law- why don't they care about that? I say that because I know they at least send it to the state he's in when it's Department of Juvenile Justice that files instead of "just the custodial parent" so I am sure he's been made aware and has refused to step forward for a parentage test or CS court or anything else. That is illegal isn't it?
