Hi
I'm having some issues with my ex-partner he doesn't pay for our DS who is almost 5years old. He did pay from £40 a month from Dec of 2009 until May of 2010 (pitiful I know).
Its a long story but I have tried to get CSA and had several failed attempts (he reckons he's on JSA and trying to start up a new business, already has clients). Anyways he is not on DS birth certificate (his choice to say no, as he said I could claim CSA if his name was on).
I want whats best for my son and to see his father is a big priority to me. His father is not consistent, does not pay, so I went to my solicitor & got visitation for my son and his father in a contact centre. Still no money from him but the visits we're going well, so after 4month I allowed him over night stays.
My only condition, do not to introduce him to anyone at the minute. Cut a long story short he introduced him to his girlfriend and her son straight away without telling me.
I don't have any hidden agenda, i'm happy he is with one girl at least its some kind of stability. My only priority is my son and he's not happy, I insisted on mediation with him his girlfriend and 'her' son and he said no. So I went back to my solicitor to see if mediation would work again, as I feel he broke our agreement. Around the same time I got a message from my ex saying he will talk to me through lawyers and he is taking me to court!?
To be fair I feel he is having a laugh, am I going crazy here? He doesn't pay, actually he said he won't. He is not consistent, doesn't turn up on time and most of the time my son is lucky if he turns up at all. Although while at the contact centre his time keeping was always perfect.
Does he have a leg to stand on?????
