Legal Question in Family Law in Ohio
My daughters father is court ordered to pay half of medical expense and is refusing to pay half of her second set of braces. How do I take him back to court to make him pay ? I do not want to hire an attorney because that will end up costing me as much as the braces. Please help !

In Ohio, it depends upon what the decree says about who is to pay for the braces (usually referred to in Court orders as "orthodontia"). If the decree requires him to pay half and he refuses to pay it, then you will want to file a Motion to Show Cause why he should not be held in contempt of court for failure to abide by the Court's order. If you win and he is found in contempt, then he will either have to pay for his end of the braces, and your attorneys fees, or he will have to go to jail.
