MAINTENANCE OF CHILD SUPPORT RECORDS
Dear Layne & all who have contributed....
Thank you for your responses! I have done a lot of research so far and talked to quite a few attorney's. Fueled by these discussions that have been very educational, it is now my opinion that: Absolutely, the burden of proof is on her, and not me (that's why the phone call with no paper work and or follow-up letter), and yes there most certainly is a problem with laches (it goes both ways). Here's the ultimate conclusion with respect to these matters: "Modification Of Custody and Support" states "support and maintenance is vacated, nunc pro tunc." That's back to the date of the divorce order!" That is all that I'm going to provide here on this public board and I'm certain that you understand. The issue's remaining is their behavior's hereinafter! I honestly forgave a long time ago. The collection agency, well, they called me up and ultimately harrassed me. I had to be transferred to a supervisor because the first collections agent was a woman who obviously was gender bias! Based on threats that they made, they victimized me and demanded documents that they failed to obtain from their client! With the threat of judgement and "going forward" they feel clever to make me provide proof or else! They refused to provide me with any documentation with respect to these matters. No letter as they said they sent (lie). I HATE liar's and have a deep rooted problem with them! Never ask me a question that you don't wnt to know the answer to I tell my friends. I hope that they "collectively" really go for it, I sincerely do. They illegally accessed my credit report based on theory and not fact! No justification whatsoever! What do you think now?

Second, as soon as they make any kind of formal claim against you, counterclaim for all the support *she* didn't pay for all those years. Parents' duty to support their children exists independent of any statute or judgment. That's even in Blackstone. Dig deep enough and you should be able to find caselaw supporting this in every state. Third, jurisdiction should remain with the original court ... or in the state where the child now resides. Since the child is now an adult, some creative legal research could probably prove mom has no standing now to sue for support for the child. Absent a defined statute of limitations, she's also going to find a trouble with laches (sat on her rights too long and it's now therefore as stale claim). Good luck. Layne |

In response to the possible affidavit that allegedly she signed, I have one
that she signed and is filed! Wow, two affidavit's, one says one thing and the other says another? I'm not very smart when it comes to these things.

Your case doesn't hinge on her affidavit--it hinges on your court order so it matters not what she told the agency or what she signed for them. Your court order trumps her recent affidavit. == == |

I hope that they "collectively" really go for it, I sincerely do. They illegally accessed my credit report based on theory and not fact! No justification whatsoever! What do you think now? I think you need to nail this collection agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FRCPA). Under that federal Act it's illegal for them to: * call you before 8 a.m. or after 9 p.m. * talk to ANY 3rd party about your debt, including family and friends. They CAN call them to get your location information, but they cannot tell them that they are trying to collect on a debt from you. * add collection fees to your debt. The ONLY fees that any agency can add to your debt is interest and that is only if your original contract included interest. * continue to report your alleged debt to the Credit Reporing Agencies if they have failed to validate at your request. * harass you by calling numerous times, hanging up on you, leaving numerous messages on your machine, etc. * use vulgar or profane language, call you names or threaten you physically. * threaten legal action against you if they do not intend to take legal action against you (NO Collection Agency CAN SUE YOU, ONLY AN ATTORNEY REPRESENTING THE ORIGINAL CREDITOR CAN SUE YOU!) * charge Attorney's Fees if they have not filed suit. This is for those special agencies that are Attorney/Collectors. * continue collection activity if you have requested validation and they have NOT provided it. All of the above actions are illegal. Any violation of the above can result in you filing suit against the company and receiving up to $1000.00 per violation. This bit and other great info can be found at http://www.faircreditmovement.com/filecomplaints.htm Thank you, George |

My comment to Layne was meant in a general sense. In George's case, the affidavit is worthless. In "our" case, the affidavit the ex signed was not worthless. She told the court we didn't pay. The court did not tell her to prove we didn't pay. The court told us to prove we did pay. We showed the court the receipts. The court said: "Ha! That's not child support--that's $7,000. in gifts! You now owe her $XXXXXX.XX." (Well, you get the pictu-) === === |

"Live Wire Cycles NY/LI" wrote in message ... This question is a very good one! *KEY* if you will....... I want to have respect for all you good people out there by answering, but please respect my decision not to! (read between the lines) .. I didn't make a false statement by any means! === I don't know where all this came from but I do know this thread has definately outlived its usefulness. This is really a simple matter. 1. She has no case. 2. They can't make him pay. 3. He might be able to make her pay if he checks NY statutes (if he wishes to). That's it. Done. (Hopefully) === === |

Your court order trumps her recent affidavit. == == Correct, she signed an affidavit, that she is rightfully owed something, and she should have also provided the order establishing the obligation she claims was not fulfilled (i.e. the order that established CS support payable by you to her). Now, you must show that the order she provided was, at some point, superceded by a subsequent order that vacated her order. Further, you may also have to provide documentation that you did fulfill the obligation established by the order she provided, during the time the order had effect. Then you file a counterclaim and an affidavit claiming she never paid the support owed by her to you, which was established by the subsequent order. If there is no order establishing her CS obligation, then you must argue that under the law it is permissable for you to now sue for back support. Part of that argument is that according to the laws in you state (i.e state with jurisdiction to hear the matter), you are within the statute of limitations for collect CS. |
