Anybody familiar with Distant American Dads (D.A.D.) or FAIR? I read an article this weekend about D.A.D. so I called the number and got a recording which I expected. I just want to find out more about them. Same with FAIR, so any info would be appreciated. BTW, I'm assuming that someone out here was divorced in Illinois. If you were, could you send me your experiences with the courts there. I have been divorced for 8 years now and my ex is trying to get more support. Her lawyers reasoning, "The current laws governing child support were not present at the time of our divorce... therefore she is entitled to support under the current laws" B__L__IT!!!

293.2 | In New Hampshire, it is LEGAL .. but practical ?? | WILKIE::EARLY | Bob_the_Hiker | Mon Oct 31 1988 12:03 | 25 |
RE: .0 I was told by both of my lawyers, that the "settlement" at the time of divorce was based exclusively on the "current" financial state of the parties at that time (This was in New Hampshire). If a divorced PERSONs' (my emphasis) financial state changes (at any time following the divorce); they CAN file a motion for (presumabley additional) a change to the stipulation. Also, the last spouse an individual HAD is legally entitled to a portion of their (your ?) Social Security Benefit. Presumabley, if I were to go Bankrupt, and my ex won a zillion dollars, I could take her to court to collect 'just compensation'. The thinking behind all this gibberish is (political), that is the states/counties want to be sure that if someone appears on their welfare roles, and if they can get someone else to pay the bills .. they'll do it. I have no knowledge as to how practical such a suit would be, nore any information on how successfule any have been; but I would guess (by the current voghue of palimony suits), that one could get favorable reults under the right circumstances. |
