My daughter's husband owes over 5000.00 in med bills, was ordered to pay 2000.00 in child support July and Aug 2014 and then 1600.00 from Sept 2014 forward, he has not followed these orders and some others. My daughter continue to get the original child support of 1000.00 a month. Her lawyer won't continue until she is paid another 2000.00 but the problem is I can't see where she is making any progress, and has not produced a itemized bill.. My daughter is still married and none of the judges orders have been followed ...I want to let the judge know about this is case the attorney has not...I want my ex SIL to be held accountable for his failure to follow court orders...he is a Virginia State Trooper.
In the most pejorative way to put it--its none of your business.
Accusations made to a court of law without the accused being able to confront the accuser goes against the very heart of our legal system. A judge listening to evidence against someone in an active case, outside of the protections of the state and federal Constitution's is abhorrent.
That said, you are certainly trying to be a watchful parent and your child's best interests are your motivations--I get that. Unfortunately, you are not a party to her divorce and its none of your concern from the legal perspective.
If your daughter is an adult and does not labor under some kind of disability, you have no say-so in her legal matters and since I assume you are not a lawyer, you are unlikely to be qualified to know how the court works, how the specific judge handles matters, what specific events or motions are soon to be brought. Your daughter has an attorney, stay out of the lawyers business, and do everything else you can to support your daughter.
You will probably not be able to do anything since you are not a party and do not have standing in this case. In addition, ex-parte communications (communications with the judge without the other party) are generally not allowed.
