I have a couple of questions I am hoping you can help with.
1) Can my ex-husband use military equipment to run background checks on my friends. He has done this to one individual and refuses to give me detail because I do not have a Department of Defense Clearance. He is allowed to do this and if turned in, will he get in trouble for it? Can he legally run background checks on them without their authorization? Is this a form of harassment or intrappment?
2) He feels he has a right to full custody of our 6 yr old daughter because he has been "serving our country" for VOLUNTARILY deploying to the BAHAMAS for 2.5 yrs! Rough deployment, huh? Granted, her first year was in Kosovo and he is in Afghanistan now. But voluntarily deploying? Those 2.5 years missed were by choice. Does this give him automatic right to full custody when he has not proof of me being unfit?
He uses his MILITARY status to get everything he wants and I want to show him that he can not stand behind that uniform forever!
My main questions are in #1. Can he use gvt equipment for unauthorized personal use? Are there actions that can be taken against him if he does this? Can he legally run background checks on people without their authorization? Can he legally force me to give him names to do this?
Thank you for any advice you can give me! :confused:

Stop giving him names, and do not worry about the background checks. Just stop giving him names. You cannot stop him from filing, so he will file and you will fight, and he will fight and how it turns out will not go in his favor because he is serving his country. i am not sure what you mean by everything he wants, but he is not getting that because of his military status.

What equipment are you talking about? I have never heard of such fancy back ground checking machines? And yeah, how does he get their names? And how do you know he is doing background checks from military equipment? And if there is such equipment is available to him, I don't see how him using it would be illegal.

Whats funny is he would probably have more success using ZABA or something. She gives up names, and he produces a DOD clearance issue with no real information. So basically he has convinced her to tell him who she is hanging out with, and he now knows something he did not know before.
I would give up two more name, one would be the name of someone from the local newspaper who was convicted of a crime, and the other would be totally made up. I wonder what would happen with those results. I think he is just bumping his gums. This guy just sounds like a poser who has a bad smell coming out of his mouth.

Truth is, he's probably not using anything special to run a background check. Anyone can do this online for the right price. He sounds like a fake.
Even if he's an intel officer/NCO with an TS-SCI clearance, I'd bet he's not using any military resources to obtain background information on a US citizen. That's not a very smart way to stay out of jail.
Like the others said, don't feed him anything. As a military father going through a divorce, I don't gain any extra favors with the court based on my service. I don't deserve any when dealing witha divorce. In fact, my active duty status is the main reason I'd lose a custody battle. The best interest of the child is stablization/routine. That's just not as feasible being an active duty Soldier as opposed to a mother who's not active duty and remains in place.
