Detroit's Friend Of The Court ripoff How many single parents need to continue to complain before something is done? Detroit Michigan

If your ex is getting her $ and the child support and you're still getting money back.. You probably have overpaid your account... When they started taking payments, was there a payment for arrearage? If so, maybe you're caught up now and they need just sending back the payment towards the arrearage.. They need to decrease your withholding to current... I know some people who had success with emailing FOC... The email address is foc-help@3cc.co.wayne.mi.us .. Give it a try..

I too have had problems with the FOC process here in Michigan. I have yet had any luck getting anyone "live" to speak to in their office. I am the "non-custodial" parent who is current on both child support and alimony payments. However, I started receiving checks from the FOC last year. I have tried to contact them via phone, letter and fax. I want to know why I am receiving these checks as I am the one paying into the FOC. My ex is receiving her payments for both herself and my child. I feel I have been overpaying but I cannot get that confirmed with the FOC. I am afraid they are going to send me a bill sometime in the future indicating they erred in sending me all these checks. I have copies of everything and will also be writing to the michigan Judicial Oversight Committee. It is a shame that those who are making the payments on time cannot receive any form of customer service from the state (aside from NO-Service).

Dear Sean,

Thanks for the rebuttal. One of the first things I did after relocating was to send a letter to Detroit's Friend of the Court advising them (at least 3x) of my new address and telephone number.

The only response I received to date was a letter indicating that the information was received and that the matter was being looked into. That was almost two years ago.

Since I wrote you last, a payment suddenly appeared in my mailbox the following week for $300+. I'm not sure if it is because of my comment/complaint or not.

I thank the friend of the Court for doing their job.

Hopefully, this is the onset of future payments to come. If not, I will definately advise you.

Have you ever though with all you moving, maybe Friend of the Court doesn't have your current address. Sometimes you get a check, then the next one get's sent back to FOC for some reason, then they hold all future checks until you verify your address.
