I am more confused than ever - he has his own business and a perfect credit score but stole a $30,000 CD in order (presumably) to make ends meet.

It sounds like no matter what anyone recommends you are going to go ahead with this plan and continue to defend him so I think the thread should be closed.

But yet this means that he will also own the car and can take it back at will.

I still don't get why you're getting this all mixed up with the child support. He OWES the money back in addition to the child support.

I'm just stating the facts. No need to defend him. I didn't know what the State of Colorado laws are in regards to cthe child support guidelines . Thanks for your help.

As we all said in the beginning, he can't reduce child support. So lets forget that.

But your adding the info that you gave him $30K to open a CD for your daughter's education (not the best place to put that btw) and he stole that money is a big issue for me. Not only does he have to pay back that money, but the interest it would have earned. He's not only stealing from you, but from his 2 yr old.

He stole from you and his child. If you aren't defending him, have him arrested.

I hope I get this right.

He owes you child support. That child support is separate from buying a car for you. They are held separate because it is paying back a debt he owes you. Yes, I say debt because its not stealing if you don't report it and follow through with it. So however he acquired the money he still owes $19,000 on it. So even if he went to court and claimed it saying it is art of the child support the fact is that it is not.

Separate issues.

I counted 9 "No, you can't do this" answers and the question keeps getting asked. Your run down is correct but apparently no one is listening.

Frustrating and the second time this has happened tonight.
