So prove that she submitted the claim under both. You don't get to violate your court order based on what she might have done when you have no idea whether she actually did or not. And no valid reason, from what I can see, to think that she did.

Posting hx is vitally important here, folks.

Say she did. Can I sue her to get my money back? What recourse do I have?

You come up with something more than supposition and we'll talk. Since right now there is nothing but your own paranoia to suggest that she submitted the claim to both the auto insurance and the health insurance, it would be a waste of time for anyone to discuss the matter with you further.

I hope she IS sticking it to you for a profit. If I had to deal with someone like you, I'd want to do the same. You don't come across as being a very nice person, frankly. I feel sorry for your ex.

If the cost are supplemented through insurance then you shouldn't pay. Unless the insurance company has told her to pay her first and she will be reimbursed later. If this is the case then you should also make sure she reimburses you. In short, if she isn't paying anything out of pocket then you shouldn't be either.

Alrighty then.

This is what I've been thinking too. How do I ensure she actually does reimburse me though?

Ok, I work in child support enforcement. Please back this up with statute and/or case law. I'll wait.

LOL You're willing to take the input of a total newb over that of numerous seniors who actually know what they're talking about? SMH.

I tried calling the health insurance. She told me she couldn't give me specifics because my ex is the primary on the policy but since my son is on the policy and I gave identifying information on him - that in Virginia (where they are) you are allowed to submit to both the health insurance and auto insurance since there is no subrogation?? She said the car insurance acts as the primary policy since it was an accident and health as a secondary but it is legal to double dip.

I posted what my court order said. So...is it legal for her to submit the full bill to me (without submitting to either insurance) and then get reimbursed by me, then submit the full bill to both insurance companies? If she gets reimbursed by them does she have to pay me back what I paid her?

You know how to stop this. You can allow Mom's husband to adopt. Then you'll never ever have to deal with her again. :cool:
