There is NO Court Order that orders DAD to PAY Child Support | He doesn`t owe me anything 

One, child support shouldn't exist. Two, if it's going to be done it should be fixed like tax deductions and credits for children. A child can easily be provided for around 300-500 dollars a month; especially, if it's not full coverage, so that's what it should be regardless of income. Not to mention, if the mother isn't working, then the father should have full custody, since it makes no sense to pay for them to live with someone else.

in my state 300 will cover food and thats about it. plus the added cost of a second bedroom place clothing and any other expenses. i can see 700 being more than resonable, but like anything it would depend on the sate/location@@litigioussociety4249

Vietnamese Nails 💅 support

Why shouldnt you pay for your child? @@litigioussociety4249

​@@litigioussociety4249child support absolutely should exist if the Father refuses to coparent. If the father will split custody and takes care of the kids while with him then no support is needed. There are plenty of deadbeats out here making new families and leaving their kids behind. Every case is different.

You must not have been paying attention, at the very end there the judge clarify that was an issue for a separate government entity to handle. Odds are if he brings it up she'll have to pay him back and if she doesn't have the ability to do that then the swbt owed here could be used in place of if the parties agree to it. It's also his responsibility to know his payment schedule, he should have stopped paying months earlier and she should have stopped receiving it early. In the end his claim against her is called something like unjust enrichment. It was clearly an error

​@vfreeman3188 They take it out of your check, so how are you going to stop it unless you quit working ?

The state took that money and run

He will get an offset or refund from the state. Trust me they won't keep the money. It may go towards administration fees once the child ages out.

Having have dealt with this, the state will call them voluntary over payments and as such the state doesn't have to pay them back to the father or give him a credit for them. The states position is that any errors or over payments are on the father to address in court in a timely manner.

If only that was “true”

It's not. Odd you wouldn't verify that. It's for the costs associated with raising the child. Associated is keyword.

They haven't forgotten, they dont care because that the way the law has been written.

Please! As if mum's don't use it to but as long as the Child is continuing well it's good to just soldier on

My (child support) $ allows her to buy cigarettes and beer…just like when we were married, while my children show back up my place starving and actually take food with them back to her place. SMH

The job he works he is sometimes looking for new work the hire him to complete ONE job.

standard hours in these expensive times.

And was penalized for it.

And they’re still trying to tear him down!

That would not be permitted in Australia, nor would they get anyone to work those ridiculous hours. That is appalling.

Bc that's how CS works, when you have say 2 kids and your monthly support is 800 a month and one ages out and owes no arrearages when the one child drops off they aren't going to half it, they will take maybe 50 bucks off or so...my dad was to pay 100 a week for 2 kids (this was late 90s early 2000 (I was 18 in 2002) when I dropped off, dad had thought it would go to 50 a week and when the judge dropped it to only 80 a week my dad throw a shit fit in the court room... Btw my dad has been at the same machine shop since I was like 6 I'm 40 now and he's still there he will be 60 in Nov 2024. And has always made well above average he just didn't want to pay mom shit...

Yeah he gonna have file a petition for child support review and he will win to reduce support…. It’s funny how ugly they get in the face when it doesn’t go there way🤣

It depends on how much money he and the mom were making at the time of each child support determination. I suspect Mom does have a job. But she has the child the vast majority of the time and likely makes way less than 57K.

@GoodnightJLH We watched the video, instead of doing actual math to see the actual calculations The judge made an high child support as a form of rear payments ONE DAY WOMEN'S CONSUMER DEBT WILL BE TREATED EQUAL TO A MANS CHILD SUPPORT OBLIGATION. THEN, SOCIETY WILL HAVE A PROBLEM WITH EMOTIONAL LEGAL ORDERS THAT BEAR NO MATHMATICAL REASONING

Due to Greed

Some courts will actually assign income to unemployed parents in cases like this when calculating support.

Yes!!! This judge always goes out in the Dads, but since he speaks all calm, folks think he is being "compassionate & fair"

Why should men who make less then a woman pay almost whole check?

@@jonosay854 dunno about other cases, but this one seems adjudicated according to the law. what i'd really hate is a judge that decided what he thinks is fair and ignore the actual law or overstep his authority. this is all assuming the judge went directly by the given formula and didn't try to make up for the loss by making the new child support amount higher than it should have been

Great dad

Inflation because idiots voted for Biden.

That's the judicial system... If a guy oays for one child, that child gets between 25%-50% of the man's income. If he pays for two, child 1 gets 15-22% and child 2 from 5-10%. Each amount goes down, until the 10th kid gets like 1% of the income. You can praise the fvkked up system of "justice" in America.

exactly ridiculous

The original order was based off of his income at the time which was a lot lower. the new order is based off of his present income.

​@@amberstorm1139nothing is ridiculous if both parties agree and sign the order. Evidently both of their signatures are on the original.

Hell, all he has to do for YEARS is work 60hr weeks to pay his exes meth habits.

So True!!

At least the judge didn't make him pay the back child support

He actually caught a lucky break. The mother's attorney way back then screwed up the language of the order and stopped the CS with a minor still in the house. That saved him 10k 🤷‍♂️

What are you talking about? He's a deadbeat dad. He just got away with ripping her off for two years of child support.

Miami trip went down the drain 😅

What? Actually expect an entitled divorcee to work for a living?

Because they can count on him working 60 hours a week. They shouldn't count more than 32 hours a week against child support.

child support is really economy support. Child support is spent to support the economy. child support is rarely saved.

It does. I have seen quite a few videos where judges tell mothers they have to get a job, or if they are under-employed (could earn more) they base payments on what they should be earning.

They won't do that due to the courts knowing it'll be less money for them along with less cases. If people looked up child support how it came about and what they can do woman would understand not to deal with them over dealing with them. They use and view woman as cattle to make money from and men as the farmers to the cattle. They treat an view woman as incompetent and helpless. Completely undermind the vaule of a woman due to the out look on woman they have. When it comes to the givwrmant they are treat like children yet think they are thought as adults in the situation. Yet they are more just money to these people over anything.

i am 75 and i can tell you it's always been a fustercluck.

When I owed child support, the state of NY said that they didn't care if I lived in a cardboard box on the street, the only thing that matters was the child support, not whether I had a roof over my head or not. The system is rigged in favor of the mother. My ex worked for her lawyer, and even got an increase to keep her high expensive living routine.

True. But he can’t get it back when he and his ex are the only two parties in this court case. He will have to first request his money back. If denied, he has to file suit against the AG.

Welll hopefully he does that and he's successful. Im so sick of this type baffoonery.​@@GoodnightJLH

​@@IndiTol-qo1eghis kids never got that money. That's what he was asking and what the commenter above me said. Think of it this way. He now has to pay the 765 plus for the one kid going forward. He owes like 2 grand back however he paid for that year and the state has that money. He will ask the state for it back and In a perfect world he would get it minus the arrears and continue paying for the one kid going forward. The state will probably deny this and at that point he can sue the state for it or let it go and the state keeps it but it won't go to the mother (supposed.to be for the kids) because there wasn't an order for it.

@@IndiTol-qo1eg The state took child support from the dad after the first child aged out and didn’t send it on to the mother. The first court order was f’ed up. Dad will have to request for the child support the state is holding to be sent back to him. If he’s a decent guy, he’ll send it on to the mother for his son, but he has no legal obligation to do so.

Most likely needs to file a civil action against CSS, and include any damages/interest/fees in the settlement...

You are one thousand percent correct

yep, because alot of "mothers" that get child support 90% of the time will use it on themself FIRST and whatever money is leftover they MIGHT give it to the child for clothes etc.

But she has a son who IS NOT 18.

I think she was upset because she thought she was gonna get back pay for all that time

I hate it when people assume the money should just go into a little kid wallet or purse for them. Lights, gas, car expense, rent, clothes, cable, wifi, new bedding, toothbrush, soap, laundry supplies, on and on, extra curriculum activities, etc. All that goes into a child's life. And they set it based on what is earned by both. Women who don't work( yuk BTW if you get away with not having a job on this day) goes to minimum wage number. If you put a baby in someone, then leave, or however it happened ya split, ur child deserves to live the standard of life you are capable of providing. If you think baby mama gets a " come up" from this, well oh well. Too bad. Deposit ur seed in a woman who makes more then you. Then go work for minimum wage urself. And get custody of the kid and she will have to pay you. It's just what it is. Wrap it up next time or don't divorce till they grown.

Most of what you listed should already be provided by yourself in the first instance, in order to be considered a fit parent. If you can't afford detergent independently, you can't provide clean clothes for your child. If you can't afford your utilities, you can't provide them for your child (heating/AC being a necessity dependant upon state). If you can't afford internet independently, you can't provide it for your child, and realistically, just shouldn't have it, if you can't afford to provide it. The other parent has to provide these things whilst they have custody of the child, and they're not getting support of the other parent. As stated, most of what you listed, you should be capable of providing independently of child support payments. I mean the big one is rent - your housing/living arrangements are your own responsibility, if you cant afford the rent independently, you need to find a place you can afford, or, face homelessness and a potential loss of custody

Raising a kid is work. I would say you should try it sometime. But you should never try it actually.

@@PallasAthenian the daughter he was paying child support for was living with HIM, so according to your logic, she should be paying him for that additional "work".

​@@PallasAthenianbeing responsible matters. Try not having kids with losers and you won't have to worry about it

You aren’t entitled. Get a job and don’t rely on others to take care of you.

You don’t think it is normal to cry when your child is deprived of money they need to live a comfortable life? You’re heartless. I lived with a single mom and a dad who only provided for his new family. The amount she cried after I went to bed because she couldn’t give me what the other kids had still haunts me.

​@angeiang7006 Because over-time is not guaranteed. The courts base the rate off last year's tax returns over-all. One year you can make $150,000 ot built in, the following year your company can do drastic cuts thus significantly reducing your salary.

Dude, ALL earned income goes to help raise children for divorced parents and married parents. PERIOD. Dad should pay for his son Matthews, regardless of the typo in the order.

As both parties stated.. Neither ask for this case to be before the judge. The state of Texas simply wants it's cut of the money that get processed through the system. It's a self serving system. Conflict of interest and a reason the "system" will never be fixed. It's another income producing source for the state.

Yes very.

It's because she didn't "graduate".

Was thinking that

He said she lived with him for half of 2019 & actually had gotten married. If she was married, then child support should automatically stop for her, there is absolutely no reason this woman should get any back child support for her married daughter, even if the girl was married before her 18th birthday!! The day I turned 18, during the fall of my senior year of high school, my dad quit paying child support because I was 18. This was WAY back in 1971.

That's true

@@douglaswilkinson5700it happens to gay men too now. Welcome to modern society. Rofl.

@douglaswilkinson5700. Woh woh woh! You're not gay man....just deeply closeted.

It seems the dads never want to get a lawyer

Apparently, if you've noticed, his employment isn't stable. That's why. Set it low so he can afford something to pay. Duh.lol Also, blame the courts.

Technically he was paying for 1 in the Court eyes...that's why when she turned 18 the support ended

Child support isn't calculated strictly on a per child bases. You get a set amount laid out by a formula for the first child, then they add an additional percent onto it for each additional child, something like $500 for child 1 and $250 for child 2. This is because the extra expense of housing is typically covered by the payments on the first child. If calculated at the same rate of pay he made in 2019, it would likely be paying closer to $500 but since he almost doubled his income, the amount of support for the 1 child is increased.

I would say the previous order was written based on wages and formulas in place at the time. At the current time his wages are probably higher and the formula for calculating the amount may have changed. The Dad didn't have to pay back child support. So it isn't really that unfair. After all his younger daughter deserves his support even though she was born later.

@@ArchanDelon12 seems you are saying that when this period of intermittent employment ends, as he's indicated is its nature, he has to go back to court to lower it and she must then file every time he gets another contract to increase it again. btw, it seems the state wanted it fixed retroactively so they wouldn't have to deal with this family, ignoring the illegality of just retroactively rewriting a court order.

You can safely bet the rent that he will get one, or at the very least, have it applied to his future obligations.

​@@richconboy6896 This is Texas, I would be surprised if he does.

@@grbenway What makes you think she doesn’t work? I can’t imagine she was surviving very well supporting the kids without getting any child support if she wasn’t working.

Sounds like she won't have a choice...?

That's the thing; She WAS receiving CS...This was a modification hearing (She was asking for more CS...) Sounds like he was paying the months that he could, and went into arrears for a month or two. All that $ + interest + fees must be credited back to him...

It isn't though, it is $30 extra a month on the child support. Once the last child aged out she would only be getting $30 a month.

because shes not getting the past 2 years of back support from oct 2020 to 2022 when she was served.

And medical is free, why does he have to pay that?

⁠Not in Texas, noncustodial has to pay back the state for medical since the state is providing it!

As an outsider of the US, I'm aware that if he can get and pay for health insurance for the kid, and it's over $150 per month, he can file again and her payments would be reduced further. Why medical can't be paid through taxes is beyond me. 🤷‍♀️

​@@darciedelao6825 The health insurance is not free it is paid for by tax players, so most states require reimbursement for the cost.

He did. He owed 1025.00. But that's better than he thought it was gonna be

probably cause he got off easy today.

Women who can't support their children get benefits and free money. Man who can't support their children and go to jail, let that sink in.

Because women are strong and independent as long as a man is paying. Court costs should always be split 50/50

​@@tiredofit1968most mothers get off easy 🎯

What's ironic is even if he owed a substantial amount of back child support, he'd only be asked to pay it back at $80-100 additional per month. It was never going to be a windfall in the first place. So much drama!

Yeah; But she was expecting a check for $750.00 that day. Most likely went out and took credit on the $ she now isn't getting..."I get paid next week..." Turns out, they owe him $$$/interest, and fees...Poor dude gonna need a forensic accountant to figure out how mich the state owes him...

Still an extra $100 a month she wont be receiving...Judges math is still wrong; By his own ruling, the credit should begin on Nov/Dec 2020...He needs to hire an accountant, and start. removing fees, and adding any credits from there...

The ones like this behave like children. She's clearly to emotionally immature amd poor to have custody of those children. The courts lawyers and politicians are complicit in this mess.

its a natural response girls have to manipulate the situation. They all learn it at a very young age and use it through their whole lifes to achive goals.

Yep! Probably promised her new boyfriend something, and thinking he’s gonna leave her now!

Why didn't the Dad ask the judge about that in the hearing. Also, he needs to appeal to the state AG about the money he paid for child support that he didn't owe. Receive that money back from the Mom or have it credited to what he still has to pay her.

Most of these dads are cucks that will never stand up for themselves or even bring an attorney to do so. They'll just bend over, take it and work more overtime

Actually, the judge followed the law for Texas. This woman was expecting to be awarded 2 years of back child support and she left with nada.... further, I can say the father absolutely would get credited for the continuation of the child support beyond the original end date of Oct 2020. He would just have to go court to get it addressed. I wouldn't be surprised at all if the whole "arrears" that he has on the books was wiped out by that too.

For her child?

​@@nikkid4890For herself, mostly her upkeep.

You need to put your listening ears on because the judge specifically stated he has no jurisdiction over that matter due to federal laws. He did, however suggest, that the father take it up with the attorney general's office!!!

That was very telling to connect the truth of what eventually came out..... she didn't graduate from h.s!!!

I caught that too. The dad said 2020 but when he first asked the mom she said no 2021. The judge asked again and that’s when she said idk 🤦🏾‍♂️. I just knew he was gonna get on her for lying but everyone just danced right over it!

How in the world does a parent who has custody of their child not know when their child graduated?? I have 4 and know to this day when they each graduated. First she disagreed with dad on the year then wants the judge to do the math based on when the child was born?? Lol Some kids don't graduate at the exact age that most kids do either due to repeating a grade based on their grades or lack of attendance. Parents really need to get it together, especially if they're going to go through this process of court. Document & keep copies of EVERYTHING in chronological order.

@@debracoggins6825Some people don’t have as good of a memory as others, especially when it comes to dates or numbers in general. There may be mental health issues contributing, and then there’s just the simple fact that they are in a court hearing right now. That can be extremely stressful, and when some people get nervous they have a problem thinking straight. I don’t think we can really judge a complete stranger off of that. I know that I love my child more than anything in the world, and I gave my everything to raise her and give her the absolute best she could have (and still do even though she’s an adult herself now). But if I’m in a stressful situation, I wouldn’t just be able to rattle off her graduation date to you if you asked. There are some things like that that seem to stick in your head for eternity (for example I’ll never forget her birth time, birth weight and length, and phone numbers from my childhood!), but sometimes I can’t even remember how old I am! That doesn’t have any bearing on my ability to love and provide for my child. You look way too old to be playing this character of the shaming villain. So let’s not play the judgmental mom to other parents, Debra. It’s a disgusting look in the absence of anything serious.

My daughter is in her second year of college. Her "father" and i divorced when she was 2, he never paid a dime, never bought her as much as a pair of socks, i never took him to court, i figured you can't make a man be a father. She never went without, had everything she needed and most of what she wanted. Some men are worthless, some women are worthless. I imagine its been that way since time started.

My ex is a multi millionaire. We have a disabled child. He doesn’t pay anything. So thank you tax payers for all the insurance as I take care of this child alone. Like white trash. (I work part time when he’s allowed at school) so unfortunately the system does fail. Especially when you can pay off the judge. FYI. If you don’t want to pay child support- just make a bunch of LLC’s.

She doesn’t need anything from the dad…..only money 😂🤣

She either missed the technicality or she tried to slide it by the judge. It sounds like the attorney general’s office missed it too so it must be an easy mistake to make. It’s very sad that the mistake was made in the first place.

Because Mama needs her Drugs, she sounds so High!

I doubt she read it. It's a very atypical court order, and the judge said it wasn't fair, so it shouldn't even be the way that it is. She probably assumed that the child support order was just standard, but this one isn't. It's wrong. It's not supposed to say what it says. The attorney general didn't screw up, the attorney who wrote the child support order is the one that screwed up. Even the judge said so.

She only read the parts important to her...The judge taught her a valuable lesson that day. Read/understand EVERYTHING. Details matter! LoL; Divorce atty trolled another one with the old "any child", trick...Divorce atty's do this on purpose to troll other lawyers.

I’d love to see payment sheets done for both parents. majority custodial parent can pay more if they spend more time with the child. Parents paying hundreds of dollars and only seeing their kids one or two weekends a month when they aren’t incurring the costs is nuts. Support shouldn’t be a penalty for not being with their kids 24x7. Each parent should just pay for expenses when they have the kids and split custody fairly. Then both parents need accommodations for the kids and are spending the same amount.

@@shawnacaron1809 Totally agree. The default position should be joint physical and residential custody. No child support and no alimony. All marital assets split down the middle. Neither parent should ever have a financial incentive to divorce. Neither parent should ever be able bludgeon the other with the threat of financial ruin and an every other weekend "parenting" plan.

Yeah brothers coworker has all three of his kids 24/7 and is still paying a crackhead $500 a month in child support

@@beverlyarcher3744 that's just wild. I feel bad for him. Thank god those kids have at least one solid parent. I cant stand how kids get used as a weapon. I'm sure if she really doesn't get the kids he can get it modified

There you talk right!Judge Vonda she's the best,good and just judge.

.......so the laws in america change depending on what judge you get? Americans will never cease to amaze me with the things they say and think. After listening to a judge explan 5 different times, multiple times in detail the exact situation around this law and this case...but nooo bloody diane dobson and mthom are the real experts hiding in the comments 🤣🤣

​@@dar4061 I'm not sure why you think this is unique to America. There are inept people throughout the world that can and do ruin other people's lives.

That show is completely scripted.

I believe the courts allow support over 18, if the child is enrolled in an accredited school. Home school does not count. Judge's orders upheld by hire courts

I was just going to say that. I'm glad some one noticed as well.

Only in that particular order. Circumstances vary and most orders are not written this way. Unless it's a special needs child financial support is required until the age of majority. Very often provisions are made to continue portions of support through college. I

Or quits school

​@rustynails8756 special needs kids don't deserve extra time

my children were raised by a mother that took off across the country. both my kids dropped out of school at 16 and moved out of thier mothers house. my daughter was 23 and married and i was still paying child support. 7 years i unjustly paid child support. i would have been fine with it if i was paying it to my children.

%100!!! Gonna be some very angry people after this..."I told you, NEVER loan $ to anyone, for any reason!!!"

That isn't how back child support works though, she gets $30 extra a month.

​@@MA-mh1vsbut she's getting the same amount now for 1 kid that she got for 2. That's why men need lawyers.

@@PrayingPanda A lawyer would not change the fact that he is making more money than when the old order was done. It goes by a percentage of the income, if he still has two kids it would have been even higher.

Ahahahahahahaaa, NAILED IT! Why didnt I think of that!? I'll bet you're exactly right 😂

Bet she already spent it, she was planning to pay the credit card off😂

@@jondoe406 Hahaha

The 18 year old wasn't on the first court order. Earlier in the hearing, he mentioned the 18 year old wasn't covered and it was a mistake.

To answer your question child support is based off the payers wages. It doesn’t matter if you have 16 children or 1 child, in this man’s case it will always be set at around 750 because those are his wages and by law you can’t take more than 50% of wages out of someone’s check. For instance I pay 1.1k a month on child support for 3 kids atm, if I go and have 100 kids with 100 different women by the end of the year, my child support will still be around 1.1k as they cannot possibly take anymore from me by law (cruel and unusual punishment) Edit: this is to say that child support never goes up or down based on the number of kids, it goes up and down based off the numbers on the payers paycheck, think of it like a percentage. You have 1 kid, you pay approx 50% of your wages on child support, you have 200 kids you pay about 50% of your paycheck…….50% of your wages….50%. You make 100 dollars a month? Pay 50 dollars child support. You make 1000 dollars a month? You pay 500. Thats why some people pay more than others, it’s because they make more

What a racket this is. So they make it "just" by taking more money if you make more.

@@RostovII exactly. Its dubbed “cost of living” aka extortion

Exactly because when it's on the state none of that lifestyle crap applies
