Mom came into some $$$
My ex wife it appears has inherited a sizeable amount of money after the death of her mother. (amount unknown)
Additionally prior to our divorce her parents did one of two things, they either set up an account for college tuition and expenses or donated money to a number of schools for investment/tax purposes, which if my memory serves me correctly, will generate money to the schools our 2 children attend in order to pay tuition.
Additionally, when I ask her about this she tells me it is none of my business and will not disclose.
In our divorce agreement, I agreed to pay child support to the age of 23 as long as she took care of tuition, but upon the death of her Mother, which was prior to our divorce being finalized, my belief is she inheretied a lot of money. (her Merryl Lynch "guy" is posted on the web as only dealing with the "Ultra Rich", Entrepreneaurs, Professional Athletes and the such.. I am hearing a buy in with this guy is either 5 or 10 million dollars, I doubt she inheretid that much, but my guess is that that is the range of the estate.
None of this was disclosed at time of divorce other than "there was money avaialble for college tuition".
My question is, if I am paying $25,000-$30,000 a year for child support for the 2 kids ages 19 and 20, soon to be 20 and 21,and the children are in school, living out of the home most of the year, and the expenses are being paid form another source, do I have justification for a reduction in child support,and if so and I get in front of a judge with her, what are the realistic chances of getting modification?
