Resolution may be nearing on man's child support payments Agreement reached on all but attorney fees, county prosecutor says By KENT MALLETT Advocate Reporter NEWARK -- A resolution may come soon for an Upper Arlington man who has custody of his three children but is still required to pay child support to his deceased ex-wife. Ken Oswalt, assistant Licking County prosecutor, said an agreement has been reached for everything except payment of attorney fees. ADVERTISEMENT "On all but one topic we have an agreement," Oswalt said. "It terminates holding of money and clears up any and all monies. I'd hoped to resolve all of this." Joe Randolph, 44, has been told by Licking County Child Support Enforcement Agency officials he must continue the payments of $1,300 a month until a court tells him he can stop. Sharon Buckingham, of Newark, died April 25 at age 40. The payments have been held in escrow ever since. About 15 members of Fathers-4-Justice protested the continued payments Friday on the Courthouse Square in downtown Newark. Nancy Johnson, director of the Licking County CSEA, said the situation can't be resolved through an administrative order because she does not have the authority to terminate child support. Jerry Swank, attorney for Randolph, said last week he was confident a solution was imminent, but now his hopes have dimmed. "It's not resolved," Swank said. "I'm trying to resolve the whole thing, and they're trying to resolve part of it." County officials already have signed the agreement, Oswalt said. "I figured we might have a disagreement on attorney fees," Oswalt said. "I'm not sure the county is obligated to pay them. (Swank) could sign it, and then we could have a hearing in January on attorney fees." If no agreement is reached, the case will go to Domestic Relations Court, which has a backlog of cases. The case probably would not be heard until next year. |

I was raised to believe that when a person dies they cant take it with them. But it looks like the child-support system found a way around that. |

It's definetly a system that is far too out of control, no government agency shoudl be granted this amount of power over people's personal lives. It's very scary when that power is not monitored to keep it under control. |

This is sick.
It just shows that the CSE gives not a damn for a man, even to the extent of making him pay money to a corpse. To even have the simple COURTESY of asking the judge for a quick five minute hearing is not only absurd, but inhumane as well. I've been talking to Gini on this list about child support and when they are considered gifts, and it seems that unless you have a CP who's honest or a list of checks, all that money was ****ed away for nothing. This is wrong and needs to stop. We need a political action group. ANCPR might be a good start, but it's not enough. All of us have to get involved in the political system, executive, legislative, and judicial. Politicians and judges, as well as the bureaucrats, must be made aware that you can poke a dog only so long before he bites. And to those who say it's in the name of the children? "It's in the name of the children, it's in the name of the children, shut up and pay your child support, it's in the name of the children." Would you let them slit your throat if it was in the name of the children? Beat you? Make you stand out on the street as a prostitute so the CP can get more money. CSE cannot hide its crimes and it breaking up the family behind the children. They can not look at the parent with one hand out, but blame impotency when it comes to enforcing custody and parenting time. Children deserve more than a paycheck; they deserve two families, and they certainly aren't getting them through the current system. I'd like to see ANCPR or somebody else put together an action list that needs to be done before the next election, something that we can bring to politicians and say we want action on this. We need a system that makes it clear that child support is a LAST resort, not a first one, and only after the NCP is unwilling or unable to take their children for half of the year. And as far as the lawyers and the bureaucrats that will oppose us and bring out that dog of abused women, I just would say kiss off and **** off, get the hell out of our way. We're going to do something, and that something starts now. I say this as the son of a true deadbeat father, one who refused to pay his child support time and time again. Now those who refuse to help out their children should be held accountable and made to pay, but there is a big difference between a "dead beat" and a "beat dead" parent. Sorry, I'll get off my political soapbox right now, but we need action. |

Here's another question: what the hell are they going to do with that
money? If it went to the kids for college, maybe that's one thing, but I doubt that. |
