Cohabitattion after divorce (Family Law)

Sun, 23 Nov 2008 19:37:00 GMT

Wisconsin
I have several issues. First, shortly after my ex and I were divorced, I moved back in with her after she kicked out her abusive boyfriend. We spent the next 18 months sharing costs for the kids, 10 months of which we lived under the same roof with the kids. I am being charged for this period and 10 years of interest. Is there and argument to be made in order to resolve this? I had a hearing and was told I should have brought this up years before. I had been trying to resolve this issue for 8 years (I was never made aware of this issue until 2 years after the fact). I have provided the support I was required to, but of course my ex wife won't come to my defense because it is a 20000 dollar tax free payday in her mind. Also, my children were scheduled to have graduated by their 18th birthday. Both were delayed in graduation because of excessive absences. My son has since turned 19 and I am no longer required to pay support, but my daughter, first was supposed to graduate when she was 17. That was delayed by the absences issue and now, instead of graduating in June, She has switched to a part time schedule which has delayed graduation until well after her 19th birthday. I am extremely frustrated by all these issues. I have been current in my support for over 13 years but will be affected by this for years. Do I have any recourse? Can I sue Wisconsin for discrimination or equal representation? I have joint custody. Thank you in advance. I feel completely abused in this and could certainly use some help.
Jon
