QUESTION

Will stalling time and ignoring request for interrogatories benefit my ex?

Asked on Dec 03rd, 2013 on Divorce - Rhode Island
More details to this question:
I believe that my ex is trying to withhold his financial information. In the past, he has worked year round but since I filed for divorce, he has chosen to choose when he works and doesn’t work. I see this as a tactic to cut his income so it will reflect on his W2 so he can pay me far less than the current payments are. We went to court early this year, the F150 form asks us to submit 2 months of pay stubs. I submitted stubs for 2 months and he submitted 2 stubs but they were for 2 weeks. The commissioner who heard my case overlooked that and gave denied my request for alimony and reduced my child support. What usually happens in this case?

All kinds of games can be played with finances in a divorce. Stalling can be one of them and this is why I recommend that you contact an experienced divorce attorney in your area to help with this.

Stalling is never a benefit, but is a tactic. Find out why she is stalling and perhaps you can take appropriate steps to put it back on track.

A wise person would engage an attorney, provide the evidence and leads in order to prove he is voluntarily and intentionally seeking to reduce his income and that such should be accounted for in determining his obligations.
