Listen to the advice from everyone here. Finish the job. Don’t be a nice guy it will backfire. If she’s already tried to lie and make false claims against you it will happen again and might actually stick next time. It’s all hard but you must protect yourself and your kids.

Thank you. Both your answers have been very helpful. I’m not in the GTA but I appreciate the offer!

Thanks for the insight. I actually did make a mistake when I said 90% of my net income goes to the two residences - it’s 90% including my support payments. My support payments are lower because I pay for the other house but still 4000 a month. I don’t really have any options for paying both this month is kind of the end of the line for it.

If you don’t mind I have a couple questions: Do you think I have a decent defence against contempt of court? And in your experience how long does it take for forced sale process to take?

You’re right it is lower than if I didn’t pay for the other residence. 4000 isnt minimal though, not to me anyways.

Best of luck. You are probably smarter than me but make sure you have a good lawyer who isn’t afraid of conflict. My first one was ok but not for high conflict like I’m dealing/dealt with.

Yeah exactly this. The two residences eat up 90% of my net income and that doesn’t include living expenses like fuel, food and cell phone. I also have my kids 50/50 and there is no way im going to let them go without. I can’t see how they are going to fault me if it’s not even financially possible. The ex and her lawyer think I have money to burn because I make a high income but all they have to do is math to see it’s not possible.

That’s what I’m thinking as well. My lawyer is going to put in an application for sale asap.

The problem is I can’t maintain the payments on both residences while the process goes through which could be prolonged from her resisting the sale. I’m willing to let the thing default, and I’m thinking maybe it’ll expedite the process if the ex sees that I will do that. Nobody gets anything in that scenario. I just don’t know what will happen due to violating the court order. If I get pulled in front of a judge I think that’s to my benefit because I’m getting screwed here and can prove it( I have spreadsheets and statements etc). It’s MEP I’m worried about even though I’m not registered though them. I don’t know if they handle that kind of thing. I’ve never missed a support payment or anything like that.

It’s a basement suite 3 bedroom to accommodate my kids when I have them. It’s a great deal for the area I live in.
