What is the name of your state? FL

I posted a little while back that I had my x served. He answerd the summons today. It was actually quite humorous. :D He claims that he has paid the support in a fairly timely manner and the record should reflect that. I answered and said yes we should let the record reflect it. Since the clerk of the court shows him over 7 thousand in current support behind it may not reflectt quite what he is hoping !

Okay my puter is acting up. I edited my post but it did not turn out. The rest of my post was: In my state (FL) I filed my own motion but my case is through CSE. I saw via the website (clerk of circuit court) that I need to get my hearing through CSE however CSE told me I can request my own hearing since its my case, I intitated it. Does anyone have experience with this? Thanks,

Contact your court clerk to find out what your county's process is for setting a court date after an answer has been filed.

Yes, you can have the date set, then you can give a copy to the DOR, and of course, your ex. The DOR workers might not like it, but you do have the right to file anything and have hearing dates set, as long as you keep them fully infomred of everything you file and do. No, they cannot legally drop you as a client just because you filed yourself instead of waiting for them. It can help though if you can find out what attorney's office is the attorney of record for the DOR (it will be listed as "attorney of record for the Department"). Then send the notice and copies of the filings to that attorney also.

Make sure that you get a hard copy of the record and take it to court with you. Don't assume that anyone else will get it to the court.

First and foremost, thank you Gracie and Ldij for your advice. It is most appreciated.
I did get a copy of the transaction history showing all payments and what the current support balance is, it was when I filed so it shows up until December 17, 2007 so right before court I will get an updated one. The court clerks office told me that the child support hearing officer will call down to get the amounts, but I will feel better knowing that I have a copy with me and not leave it to chance.

I was really shocked when CSE told me they could drop me as a client, just didn't sound right. Good to know that they should not be able to do that. I have provided them copies of everything pertaining to my case.

Anyhow, thanks again.
