UPDATE: Still being sued.
To update you, I received an email from both my lawyer and ex husband, saying that if I'm not in full compliance, they are seeking my arrest and incarceration until I am in full compliance. I just don't think it's going to happen...I asked my psychic and she said not to worry, so I do feel a bit better.
I did not/do not have a lawyer, I am (now) representing myself. And while I KNOW I can't got to prison for not paying, the reason they are seeking a bench warrant for my arrest is my failure to comply with two (2) court orders. I have had a few friends be taken to jail for not paying traffic tickets and not appearing in court, so I know it can happen...I'm just astounded they would do so even when I am a SAHM to my son!
Bottom line: I was ordered to appear, I didn't, the judgement was in favor of my ex. It went back to court after I didn't pay again, the judgement was in favor of my ex. I wrote a letter to the court that they did not consider because I didn't prepare a proper response and was late with it.
Luckily, my Facebook and Instagram are private and they can't see the places I've been and what my lifestyle it like because I'm afraid they will try to go after my husband or something...my money comes from him, I have bank accounts that are in my name with ONLY my name on them and they have no more than $20 in them.His accounts do NOT have my name on them.
Again, I don't plan on working, so they can't garnish my wages. I'm not all that scared after talking to my grandmother (who is in her 80s and been through alot). You can't get water from a rock and if I don't work, they can't get money. So I don't see how I'm supposed to pay when there is NO money to pay with. If I ever do purchase anything, it will be in my husband's name. Problem solved.
I'm awaiting a response from someone, but until them, I'm going to live my life and not lose sleep over it. Besides, my ex and his new wife are very well off, they both work full time, have advanced degrees and live in a nice large home. I doubt they NEED the money and I figure they'll get frustrated and just give up at some point.
Re: UPDATE: Still being sued.
Please be MUD. Yes, you are going to jail. Yes, you need to work. Stop being so naive and take care of your responsibilities. In the meantime, start looking for someone to care of your son while you're incarcerated.
Wow! You are a completely irresponsible adult. Have fun in jail. And so far as 'problem solved' by only buying things in your current DH's name, what happens when he dumps your @ss? I wouldn't blame him for trying to get away from you.
What type of example are you setting for your baby? Or your 6 year old?
Couldn't agree more. If everyone here is so judgemental, as you stated on proboards, why come back to update everyone? Please just go away.
You know, it's not about needing the money. It's about the fact that you completely ignored two orders to appear in court. it doesn't matter that you have a child to care for, you ignored court orders. It's really quite straightforward.
You are going to jail. GROW UP!!!
I don't think anybody even cares about this nutter at this point.
Let me get this straight, you have money to pay a psychic, but you don't have any to pay back your ex-husband? They might not be able to garnish your wages but they can garnish your bank account and they can garnish you tax return. Have fun explaining that to your husband when the two of you have no money left in your bank account to pay the bills. If you're ex wants to he could hire a private investigator and they can find out everything you are trying to hide from them.
PS, it's "a lot", not alot. You're going to jail and it's no wonder, you come from a long line of idiots.

I love you for this, bparkhur!!!!
Wait, let me get this straight. You have a Master's Degree (as you state here) but you can find a job?

This is such MUD, I can't believe it!
if the psychic said it, it must be true!
Your Ex made a good decision. This much is certain.
While you can't go to prison for not paying a debt, you can go to jail for ignoring a court order.
The pictures will be admissible.
If you are married, they can put liens against your new husband. They can also docket judgments & garnish tax refunds, unemployment benefits etc. You'll never be able to get a credit card or buy a house.
Do what you want but recognize that taking legal advice from a psychic or your grandmother (if she's not a lawyer) is dumb.
