    Thanks for your replies.

    Tbagpuss, the hearing is just about the arrears because I have already been told in writing that the judge does not have any powers to relook at the original maintenance order from Ireland.
    The court have asked me to put my proposals in writing to them which I will do over the weekend. I am hopeful that the hearing wont go ahead but even if it does I will still pay the arrears off.

    Guest101, your right I have parental responsibility but despite a court order saying she couldnt leave she did. The judge here did nothing, in fact he didnt even find her in contempt of his order. When your in that position you realise very quickly that the courts will never be on your side. You was able to claim she had family there which would enable her to work, two years later she is still sat on her !!!! chasing me for money. In the end I just want to pay it all off to stop the hassle of her taking me to court. It is a game to her and over the last four years I wouldnt be able to tell you how many times I have been in court. It is simply loads. She issues a summons and I have to attend, it is quite unbelieveable. But despite all that life is good and hopefully she will leave me alone eventually.

    So she breached an actual court order?

    Does she attend hearings?

    Have you spoken to the police. European arrest warrants are the new thing.
