[quote=Anonymous]This is an interesting case. Highlights how differently men and women are still treated in family court.

Jon and wife divorced in 2004 - child was 4 at the time and custody was split 60/40 - mother/father, with Jon paying $10K/month. At the time of the divorce Jon bought Sarah a house. Over the next few years Jon went to court a couple times at least trying to get sole custody due to safety issues when the child was with Sarah. The court reprimanded her (i.e. do not leave children alone) but did not change the custody agreement. In 2009 she was investigated for child abuse against her younger son (with then ex-boyfriend). Investigation led to custody of both boys being given to their respective fathers. Jon now had full custody, and she had very limited supervised visitation. Court required him to continue to pay $8K a month to maintain her home as it was not a hardship to Jon and in the best interest of the child to have that home to visit / live in again down the road. Sarah had argued that as her only income was child support, she needed it to keep the house. He also had to pay her legal fees.

Jon went back to court a number of times over the next couple years trying unsuccessfully to get various financial matters related to lawyer fees and custody finances changed. He wanted the money to be put into a trust fund for his son instead until Sarah regained custody. At one point Sarah was investigated for hiring a hit man to kill Jon but I don't think that was ever substantiated.

In 2011 Jon went back to court to ask to have custody payments reduced as the child was with him for 351 days a year x 2 years. Court said no - he still had to pay Sarah to ensure she didn't lose her house. Sarah actually wanted more as she said her expenses were $13k a month and the $8K child support was still her only source of income. None of that $8K went o the child - Jon has paid all child related expenses on top of providing the child support.

Since 2011 Sarah has slowly had more visitation and is according to her lawyer was recently granted 50/50 custody. She is now asking for $88K/month instead of $8K.
