Thank you for the information Ma. It’s encouraging and comforting to know that the court is on our side and the side of our children. However I don’t feel like that when we’ve been left with no maintenance for years; no food, electricity and water disconnected , children about to be kicked out of school yet the father has money and lives a luxurious life with mistresses. Our case keeps on being postponed. I’ve got Rule 43 court order (pending divorce) stipulating what he has to pay but he doesn’t. Tried warrant of execution and the sheriffs claimed they couldn’t get hold of him or the cars etc to attach and sell. So recently we applied for contempt of court and it’s more than 8 months and nothing has happened. He changed the matter from uncontested to contested at the last minute then it had to be put off the roll. Applied for a new date and now am told him and his lawyers are refusing to file the heads of argument. So my question is can that cause the contempt of court application to be struck off the roll and delay it again or not? If so, what other remedies are there? Your response will be highly appreciated.
This is very helpful information. I will be prepared for my appointment in January after the father of my kids failed to pay for 2 months. I've already completed the form for failure to comply with a maintenance order.
At vredenburg maintenance court the father's are being favoured and not the mothers or children in most cases what can be done in this situation we're do we go to complain.
I can relate ,I struggled even at home affairs for his signature on unabridged certificate he never wanted to sign and write his name and surname .I do not know why this was changed because early 2000 you could write the father s name .Now if he doesn't want to he doesn't.
Thank you for your information, I'm actually in that process. He hasn't paid in 5 years, a letter to pay in 14 working days has been issued. I am now waiting to see what will happen next.
Hi advocate Puleng. What if I only have the fathers identify number, and I know the name of his company but not address/branch that he works at or even his residential address. I only am sure about his Identity number. Will the maintenance court be able to trace/investigate the father. Tnx 🙏
Hi Ma the father change work after he was gunished court tried to locate him without success till now his not paying if sjould he be found what actions must be taken
Good Day Ms, in case of section 32, i have applied for sect 32 on the 25 February 2022....as we speak we currently still going on, I was cross examined on the 5 July 2022 ,the responded have legal representation. I have been to court for more the 13 months, the proceedings kept on being postponed without any valid reason.I will be in court again on the 3 April 2023.And I know it will be postponed again.I truly feel that the court isn't on my side.due to the privilege the responded has, he doesn't even pitch at the proposed court dates at times.Kindly advise what I can do
Thank you mama , but I dd apply he paid 3months and stopped, went back to court , nothing is happening since , what can I do now ....no feedback from court no nothing, must I change the court or what????
What happens in a situation where the father is paying maintenance for the child a minor 1 year 2 months an amount of R1200 and buying clothes every 3 months and paying 700 for medical aid yet the mother wants R3000 and she doesnt contribute anything and denies access to the child
Thanks for listening. As I am not allowed to give you legal advice but rather legal education, let me respond this way. Generally both parents are expected to maintain if they are both working. They must contribute proportionally based on how much they earn. Please listen to both videos on the topic. All the best and again, thank you.
What happens in the event that the father that has been in a common law marriage for 6 years decided to kick out mom and baby when baby was only one month old, and gives up his parental rights. Is he still liable for maintenance of the child?
What happens when the court failed you, I have submitted all the forms, the is still nothing,he got all his pay out on Friday the 9 and i don't have anything from the court
He pasy monthly maintenance which is 1000 rands.he was supposed to pay extra 2000 in June,Dec and Jan.but last year he has skipped all those months.i think because he buys the stuff for winter,and Xmas and now school he feels he can't pay..am I wrong to say he is not suppose to skip,cause he didn't even discuss this with me he just took a desicion on his own..and I don't know but am hurt and I feel like because he earns more he takes advantage of me.
I am dissapointed at court because the could never make this guy sign becsuse he never attended court.He would pay when i go report him at court.So I approached court the process is draining becsuse everytime he must appear at court he emails sick note all the 3years
Check my other videos on the subject. They will provide guidance on what to do when he fails to comply, eg garnishee order where money can be deducted from him. You can also attach his pension, insurance, sell his house or open a case.
@@advocatepuleng The clerk who s been handling my case says the cannot garneshee him if he never attended court ,they would be in trouble.I raise these many times with him .When he they send supoene documents he sends money ,whatever amount he wants to pay.Infact it's 8years of struggle
I love you 😍
