Another thing to take in account, in most state, I know in NC, before a parent moves for any reason there must be a 30 day written notice issued before the move. This would include any changes to telephone numbers and the new address. It doesn't have to be written into any order, it's a domestic law when children are involved. If this can be proven, especially if she moved across state lines, she is in contempt right now. Also, if you have absolute proof of her drug use, you can issue, through the courts, a drug testing. This will begin the process of establishing guide lines. You can have your visitation order amended when or if she fails the test that would state that no illegal drugs are to be used during visitation with the child by her or either parent. If, during ,say, a visitation exchange, she appears to be under the influence, you can call the cops right then and there and have her arrested for contempt of court, upon which she will be tested again to determine if she is or not. If found under the influence of any illegal drug, that would be strike two and that much closer to the father obtaining full custody of the children. Make sure you have a copy of the order with you when the cops show up. Cops have no right to inturpret the law, but they are there to inforce the law. The new man's income in the mothers life has no bearing on the support amount, but the mothers does. If she has had pay raises or gotten a higher paying job, you can have the amount of support owed amended based on imcome increases. Good luck
