A Short Conclusion About » Employment Law Offices Los Angeles
Can a person be sued for child support for time they were in a hospital for combat related injuries?
A friend of mine claims his wages were garnished for child support after he was released from the Army. He had lost one leg in combat and along with other conditions to cause him to be released under combat related disability. Years later he owes over $22,000 for child support directed at the time period he was 1) in combat, 2) in the hospital 3) released from service with a Prosthetic below the knee. He has been unable to gain employment since his discharge. His bank account which contains his disability check may be garnished AGAIN, as per a letter received from the office of the Director County of Los Angeles, Child Support Services Department dated June 30, 2008.
Do you think this is the respectful way to treat the American soldier who lost a leg in combat and who could not pay because of it?
My question is: is there a law that protects the disabled Veteran from this type of abuse?
Please let me know if someone can assist.
A lot of people seem to have a disgraceful attitude about this subject.
"A soldier's child needs support, whether the soldier is dead or not." Heh. And where is this support going to come from?
Why are people so darn quick to insist that someone else do what is impossible? That's nothing but bombast, pure self-righteous moral grandstanding. "Oh look see how good I am to insist that someone else do what is right, even if it is impossible."
In my opinion, anyone who says that a soldier, injured in his country's defense so that he cannot work, should pay child support nonetheless, that person should be required to pay the soldier's back support personally. Children must be supported, you know. So grab one of these slimy liberals and make HIM do the supporting! For example, I think that "Justbeingher" should have to pay this fellow's child support, since he is too injured to do so and... the child MUST be supported!
Another thing you might try: switch custody from the parent who is not injured (and who can, presumably, still work) to the parent who is injured too badly to work. How about that, liberals? Good idea, yes?
