In the RPP Family and Justice series, lawyer Lorena Meza continued to address the important issue of the need for food when you have more than one child. He recalled that both the father and the mother can file a claim, duly confirming the expenses incurred for the children.
The family lawyer noted that very often exorbitant amounts are requested in the request for food, but what needs to be done is to request what is really needed, because each of the expenses must be justified.
In the RPP, he recommended that when applying for meals, it should be explained in the most streamlined way possible, in a box as possible, with each item and the amount that is spent monthly for each child, so that the judge can clearly see and decide depending on the economic ability of the respondent.
He noted that food is not just food in itself, it includes a range of needs of children or adolescents, such as food, clothing, shelter, medical care, vacation expenses and anything else they may need for their subsistence.
In the “Family and Justice” segment, he added that if the son has already reached the age of majority and is studying with satisfactory grades, he himself can apply for an extension of the pension to 28 years, while the state of need persists. However, he stated that if an adult son gets a job, even though the law states that he can receive benefits until the age of 28, it will no longer continue, since he already has his own economic opportunities.
Commenting on the issue of out-of-court reconciliation, the specialist indicated that a hearing could be requested at the Reconciliation Center after payment of the relevant fees, which would be held in the presence of both parties to reach an agreement.
He clarified that the conciliation center will notify the defendant up to three times, but if he does not appear, he will prepare a notice of absence and the plaintiff can go to court. “The act of conciliation has the same significance as the verdict, and in case of non-execution, it can be executed in court,” he stressed.
In addition, it is reported that a wife can claim maintenance while they are married, even if they are physically separated or live in the same house, if she cannot work, is in a difficult economic situation, if she has an illness or something, which prevents her from taking care of herself until they are officially divorced.
