stop thoughts of you losing your medical license for this, right NOW! That's nonsense. Trust me on this b/c it's one topic I do know and you ain't losing your medical lic for THIS...please...at least let that fear go.
As for the judge IMPUTING more income (sorry, I used to teach English Comp & can't help myself...) hey he can try all he wants. He'd have to impute, at most, either the average of a surgeon in your specialty, OR the highest salary you earned recently, (and the time frame for "recently" is debatable)--leave that to your L to tell you about...he's not going to choose the highest earning guy at Mt Sinai and say "That's what you SHOULD earn, even if you never did before"....and your L will tell you what's worth losing sleep over and I'm telling you that losing your med lic is NOT going to happen. At least not for this. Frank, I know doctors AND defended them, who did some pretty wacky weird BAD things, and most didn't lose their licenses...let go of that fear...enough said?? Takes a whole lot more than a divorce c/s issue to do that and if you could not pay the c/s, if you really could not, taking your lic away only makes it harder for you to pay. NO one is going to break the dinner plate...
But what's bugging me the most, other than how your w gets to bad mouth you and ...what's your L say to all that? Is anyone going to ask the kids about their wishes, or do they wait til they're 12/14?
Anyhow, To hear your w's people tell it, it's as if your w put you thru the schooling and training to get to your earning capacity, (which she did NOT do) AND as if it's a long term M (which it is not) AND oh btw, if money is so important to the LG and she'd LIKE to give more to the kids, save her the trouble of breaking the law to do so, and give YOU custody!!
Incidentally, did you ever make significantly more and then when the troubles began, take an income dive? Is that what they're suggesting or just that you are hiding assets? (BTW, Fraud could cost you your lic but hey, I KNOW that doesn't apply but maybe that's what you heard someone say happened....but again, N/A to you!)
HUGS again. Your next hearing is the 16th? Okay, that's Beethoven's birthday...don't know if that bodes well but he wasn't a dad, therefore he paid no child support....so, see....SEE???!!!! IT'll all work out. Frank, remember, stay on message...if that message gets through, you will prevail....so stay focussed on what matters... j-
