Rejected petition I would like to start a petition against unfair reciprocal maintenance orders
I have received a reciprocal maintenance order from Poland stating I must pay £192 per month plus arrears. My ex wife, took my daughter to Poland and I paid an amount each week/month which was fair. However, I am in receipt of benefits now and the order should consider this.
More details
I want to start this petition to reflect the change in circumstances to a defendant. It is not a petition to cease payments of maintenance but to allow the UK courts the power to overule that of a foreign government when requesting payments deemed too high or unfair. My own circumstance is that I am a carer for my partner and 3 children, in receipt of carers allowance and income support. The amount I have been ordered to pay would leave us in serious need.
