Court modification

I agree with the rest, he is sarcastic, not accommodating “or” fair, and rude. I had a modification done in 12/10/2023 bc I got laid off and still have to go to court because he didn’t look at my evidence as he should properly.

inhumane

I have been unemployed since January 2023, so I submitted an order to modify my child support payments since I receive unemployment benefits and still paying the same amount as if I was working, leaving me with $260 a week to support a family of 6. I waited until July 21 to have a virtual meeting be...tween this man and my ex-wife. Nothing got done during this virtual meeting, he kept asking for the docket number which he had, now we have another meeting in October. I will probably be homeless by the time we have the next meeting. I don't understand why he could not modify the support order just by knowing the fact that I am unemployed. Of course my ex-wife is laughing her way to the clubs drinking the money is supposed to go to my son. This man should not be a magistrate, he should be in a Burger King flipping burgers.

Magistrate

Horrible. Sarcastic. Arrogant. Rude to woman. He’s definitely doesn’t have experience as a magistrate. Received many errors on my support order and still in the process of having them corrected. Was dealing with another magistrate but she apparently retired. So disappointed case has been given ...to him.
