In the James vs. James case, the judge has agreed with moving forward with Reunification Therapy. Mom is currently paying $1000 per month in child support, which she believes would be financially prohibitive. She has a deviation of $136 per month on her child support and did not pay any child support until October last year.
The current reunification therapy order specifies that if the father goes to a session, the father will pay for his sessions and the mother will pay for her sessions. They split the cost of the child's individual sessions, and then the mother pays for the sessions with her and the child. This is already in the consent order issued a year ago or the court issued a year ago.
Miss James paid out two fifty per session for her individual visits with the reunification counselor and joint sessions between her and the minor child. She would be paying close to $1,000 a month, which is approximately 50 cents per session. However, the client claims that the rates increase from $250 to $350 last year. If she is doing individual therapy at the same time, she would be paying four sessions at $250 or so a piece. She does not have insurance for her individual sessions, but she may have insurance that covers individual therapy. The court has not yet heard from Mr. Meincke on his client's position.
The Guardian's position was on the therapist not having to be covered by insurance, but it wasn't clear whether her position was on individual therapy and insurance. The Guardian suggested that she should do individual therapy a few sessions before starting the reunification therapy. They didn't necessarily need to do both simultaneously, but they wanted one to be done before the other.
Miss James' gross monthly income for purposes of child support is $14,235 dollars and $60.6 cents per month. She is an insurance underwriter with approximately 18 years of experience in this field. Before starting court mandated child support, she had financially contributed to Joshua's welfare through school sporting activities and communication with the other parent on opportunities to split fees where possible. However, the other parent declined or did not give Joshua an opportunity to financially support him.
The Guardian is trying to come to a resolution regarding the outstanding child support matter, as all other issues have been resolved. The only issue remaining is the custody issue, which the Guardian is not considering. The Guardian is not sure what the other parent heard and feels the need to provide additional information.
Based on the Guardian's perspective, they believe it would be better for Miss James to have a clear understanding of her views and why she feels the way she does. They also want to clarify that they are not considering child support, so they cannot provide any additional information.
The conversation between the parties and the judge revolves around financial matters, including child support and expenses. The discussion also touches on the possibility of settling custody outside of court, with one party indicating a willingness to agree to a custody resolution. The judge emphasizes the importance of the reunification process for maintaining a relationship with the child. Ultimately, an agreement is reached where one party will have primary physical custody, with visitation at the child's discretion. The parties also agree to pay their own attorney's fees and split guardian fees. The final settlement agreement is to be revised and executed, with the hope of having everything finalized by the end of next week. The judge also suggests including in the agreement that all outstanding motions are resolved based on the agreement.
Child support is money paid by one parent to the other parent for the purpose of providing financial support to a child or children. Most frequently, child support is paid by the non-custodial parent to the custodial parent, but this is not always the case. Depending on where you live and the agreement you reach, the child support you pay or receive and what expenses it should cover will vary.
