Does my ex have to continue paying full alimony?

Questioner

In the parenting plan it says that he has to pay for my daughter's education. He signed it, but he keeps 50 euros from me for 10 months. Without my permission. He pays half and my daughter and I each pay the other half.

I will gladly try to answer your question with the information you have provided. If the parenting plan states that your ex-partner must pay for your daughter's education in full, then in principle he must adhere to this agreement. A parenting plan is binding. However, it becomes more complex if an alimony amount has been set that covers other costs in addition to the study costs. It may be that he believes he can withhold part of the alimony because he pays the study costs. If you do not agree with this, you will have to discuss this with him. It is also possible that he wants to change the parenting plan unilaterally. If he can demonstrate that there is a change in circumstances, the judge will be able to test this. But he cannot simply change the agreements unilaterally. It may be wise to consult a legal expert to assess your specific situation and the agreements made in the parenting plan. They can then provide more specific advice on what is best to do in this situation. Again, this is a consequence of the information you have provided and is intended as general, orienting advice. Your situation may be unique and there may be other aspects that may influence the final advice. It is therefore wise to contact a specialized lawyer or attorney. ---------------- Stichting Rechtswinkel.nl is a national organization with students and volunteers.
