My question, I hope is simple. I am divorced as of January 2007, me ex still lives in Tenn., I have moved to Ohio. We have 4 children, 1 of age and in the service, 2 with her ages 15 & 6, one lives with me age 10. She remarried in Dec 2007, we went to court this past may for contempt on her part, not allowing marital home to be sold (she resides there w/children and new husband and his 21 yr. old son, we split the mortgage payment & it is court ordered to be sold.) While in court in may, the house was again to be sold per court order, & the courts also lined up a realtor, who still has been unable to connect w/ex for the sale & my child support also went up on this appearance from 500.00 to 900.00, and I make half the amount now than i did when the 500.00 was put into play, the judge also ordered per the ex's wishes a moral clause, that I have no overnight guests of the opposite sex unless related or by marriage from 10:30p-7:00a. I was really caught off guard by this as we were only suppose to be going to court for the contempt charge and the fact she now wanted custody of the son w/me, whom she has never wanted since birth, her attorney pulled him off to the side before we entered court and asked if if he wanted to live w/ my ex and he said "NO WAY", so that was never addressed in court, but everything else was and when I told my attorney I didn't agrree w/things she said it didn't matter this is a bible-belt state and the judge will order it anyway. It also frustrated me because this court appearance was only suppose to cost me 750.00 but since custody was an issue (which was never mentioned in courtroom or addressed w/the judge) my charge from the attorney went up to 3000.00 she states was due to the custody issue. My question, can he order this if I live in another state, as I said I live in Ohio, I have not had any one stay with me since I moved to Ohio, my son & I lived with my parents until October of 2007, I now have my own place but there have never been any moral issues happen for the judge to suddenly apply this ruling to me. I have read that a judge can order this if there have been on going moral problems or it has causes a problem for the children(mentally/emotionally.) And should a get a new attorney or contact one here in Ohio to review my case?  Any information would be greatly appreciated.
