If my ex husband was granted a request for a change of venue can that affect my exsisiting child support order?

Question

I'll try to keep this short..... Back in 2006 I was divorced my exhusband lied under oath and told the court that I took off and left our 2 sons with him trying to make me look like I was a bad mother... That wasn't the case I left him and I took my 2 boys due to his abusive behavior.They were going to school in the Los Angeles County... Since he lied and said he didn't know about me where abouts he had a court date to attend I obviously didnt know about it and they granted him full custody of the kids even though I physically had them...... SO Long story short I took him back to court proved my case by providing school records etc... I was granted 80 percent custody... Since then I have not rec child supprt from him , but I did rec nothing but problems from him.. He called the social services on me they found nothing. He re-appealed the case 3 times denied each time., and now that I just started rec child support from him he rquest for a CHANGE OF VENUE.... He lives in Imperial County and I live in the San Fernando Valley.. Nothing new has changed and he's yet again taking me back to court! He keeps name calling me. He has a new girl friend she's also disrespecting me I feel as if he will never let me live a normal life.. I went to the court date for the Change of Venue and since I live 4 hours away from the court I got there 20 min late due to me rec a sppeding ticket on the way there! I got there and was informed that the court hearing was already made and that he was granted a the change of venue.... I dont know what his motive is because nothing has changed.. He lied under oath and what can he possibly do now? Anyone go through this drama please reply... I really appreciate your reply thanxxxx.....


PS. I should have rec my regular child support payment and strangley I haven't could this have affected that? I have't even gone to trial or court.....

Answer 1

If the change of venue is in the same state i dont see how it could change anything.. the state guidelines for child support would be the same. So i really cant see why the need for a change of venue would be needed other then making it closer to him to go to court. Only thing i can think of is he knows someone that works for that court house.. a judge that perhaps he feels would lean more to his side of things.. other then that i cant think of a reason why it would change anything other then make it easier for him to show up for court now ..

The jurisdiction of your case should be where the children have lived for six months. I strongly suggest that you talk to an attorney. I also suggest that you leave home earlier the next time you go to court. You should be able to arrive on time without speeding. The fact that you got a speeding ticket tells me you were running late before you got stopped by the cop. This is about CUSTODY OF YOUR KIDS. Get up a little earlier.

Texting is private and intimate. Texting is the perfect way to create a private and intimate world between you and the man or woman in your life. Learn here https://tr.im/YWAdd

For women in particular, texting can end up being a fun “game” where they can do or say anything (even things they would never do in the “real” world). Texting is non confrontational. Odds are your relationship ended on a heated note. I don’t know why you and your ex broke up, but there was probably at least one (if not a few dozen) big fights. Done properly (the way I’m going to teach you), texting is simple and subtle. You can slowly feed your ex tested and proven messages and ideas without the risk of either one of you flying off the handle, falling back into old and destructive patterns, and throwing plates at each other.

Different jurisdictions use different formulas to calculate child support. You can find the ones that apply to your situation on line - usually under "child support worksheet (your county/his county). Do the math for both counties. You may find that he will pay less in the new venue. I strongly suggest you find a lawyer, even if it's one from legal aid. If you had one the last time, he/she would have been able to repersent you when you were late. It might cost you some money, but it might cost you far more if you don't.
