Legal Question in Family Law in Oklahoma
forged divorce papers
I have been divorced for almost 3 yrs. The only problem I was so-called ''served'' which I had to sign docs. I DID NOT sign the paperwork. Therefore I did not agree to the terms of the divorce and child support we have an 8yr old daughter he has not seen her in over 3 yrs. He is in the ARMY he is an E-7 and only pays $430. a month and is also to pay a % of day care cost per the decree. I send him a reciept every month for over a 1 1/2 yrs and he has not pd. He owes at this time about $4888. give or take a few. So I have a few issues. 1. forged signature 2.child support amount 3. owed day care money. He is also able to claim her every other yr. I need to know if there is anything I can do or is it too late? Point blank I was nevered served paperwork so I did not sign anything saying I did.

Re: forged divorce papers
You do not have to sign anything to be properly served in a case. However, if your ex forged your name to a consent decree, then you may be able to have the decree vacated. I would need to review all the paper work to be able to give you an opinion on that.
You may not even want to vacate the decree if the terms are satisfactory. Instead, you may just want to seek enforcement of his child support, day care and other financial obligations and recover the unpaid amounts. Also, if his child support is not based on his or your current income, then you can have the amount modified and increased.
