Sounds like you have been put through a lot.
I had bad experiences in NJ. When my youngest child was emancipated, the order was filed too late for probation to stop garnishing my ex's wages right away. So there was overpayment. My attempts to inquire about how much I owed my ex were met with different answers - meantime he was wanting to file a motion to get me to pay back more than I had collected, since probation had put some in escrow. We both had to hire attorneys to get it sorted out.
That was July. It is still not sorted out. They keep taking money from him and sending it to me and then demanding I pay back - which I don't mind, but they now treat both of us like criminals, when the error is theirs. They are great as a law enforcement agency, but terrible as a financial services organization.
I would have been happy to just receive a check every other week from my ex, but he played games with mailing it late, or dangling it in front of me when we were in public places together. So when he said he wanted to use probation, I thought that would be great. Well, autobillpay through a regular bank would have been better. These people do not even understand basic bookkeeping, credits and debits. And they admit no errors, and are immune from lawsuits.
They shut down my alimony, which was supposed to continue, although there was no court order to do so. Oops. Took two months to get that back. Then every time they would attempt to take alimony from his check, they would also take child support for the child who has been emancipated.
Oh but they make no errors. Once when I called them they told me I was all fine, didn't owe anyone a thing.
Our divorce should have gone to trial for a number of reasons, most of which had to do with custody and abuse. But there is pressure to "settle". This then means that in high conflict situations with abuse, there is constant post judgement litigation - making the politically correct and connected wealthy.
So I sympathize with you about the system.
On your site, you mention that you are paying child support to the stepfather who is the bio dad of the child who was allegedly your son, and you do not get to see your own bio child, . It is certainly understandable that the two brothers would be kept in one household with the person who is there continually for them, regardless of your problems. But paying child support to the guy for his own child, when your wife lied to you about you being the dad so you are on the birth certificate seems to me to be a bit crazy.
