Motion To Change Child Support

Hi everyone. I have just received a motion to change from my daughters father. My daughter is 15. She has not received any support from her father until almost 2 years ago. This was finalized with a court order and is enforced through FRO. When my daughter was born he threatened to quit his job and work under the table to avoid child support. Long story short, I raised her myself due to a lot of red flags. She started having a relationship with him about 3 years ago and it did not turn out well. He paid support, no court order, until she decided she didn't want the relationship. I took him to court and started receiving support.

He is 56 years old and just retired from his job. He has submitted a motion for a change in child support amounts. He is offering less than $79.00/month, a substantial decrease. His financials say he is only receiving 750.00/month in pension. It also shows that he owns a home, free and clear, worth 500,000.00, and a tax free savings account worth over 56,000.00, 2 vehicles valued at a total of 20,000.00, also free and clear. He show a debt of 38,000.00 on a line of credit which he pays 130.00/month on (note: this is more than child support offered). This persons liquidatable assets are over 600,000.00!

He attached a letter from his GP, who has at least 21 malpractice charges (yes charges...it's on the College of Physicians website) against him. In the letter the GP states the father is unable to do his previous labour job due to arthritis issues. The letter also states the father has been suffering a mental health issue for several months (the mental health issue claimed cannot be diagnosed for 2 years concurrent suffering). The doctor states "he is considered disabled". He also says that the father has great difficulty in keeping up the day to day tasks of his home (it is a 2 storey 3 bedroom home on a large lot). The letter was written on plain white paper, not proper letterhead (at least what you would consider proper coming from a doctor). I have great suspicion about the authenticity of this.

This man's financials are a mess. He claims nothing but phone, cable, internet, taxes...that sort. He has no medication expenses (remember...disabled) he reported zero for auto gas...he drove to my home the day he submitted the papers to the court house...that was a court violation from our first court case...my daughter and I were outside when he arrived and the court order says no contact with daughter.

I could go on but I won't, it is a nightmare. If there are gaps in my story I apologize, just ask and I will answer.

I am asking this because I feel I am going a little nuts Smile Am I the only one who thinks he nuts in opening this can of worms.

Thanks for reading, if you got this far.
