General legal information furnished as a service of Fort Lauderdale / West Palm Beach family law attorney Janet Langjahr
A former New York judge has reportedly accrued $200,000 in arrearages in child support and spousal support since garnishment of his wages ceased when he was thrown off the bench for misconduct.
His ex-wife is doing her best to support their three kids in their metropolitan NYC home on $9.45 per hour.
The ex-judge earned more than $135,000 a year during the marriage.
The deadbeat dad has since moved out-of-state and taken up working as a realtor.
It is unclear why Georgia support enforcement has not enforced New York’s support orders with garnishments of his commissions. It is also unclear whether the former judge has ever been held in contempt of court.
