I live in CA while my ex-wife and 4yr old son live in FL. When I came out to CA for about 6months to help out a friend, I didn't realize my son would become a permanent resident there. Due to circumstances I stayed in CA to help my mother. I have 50% custody of my son and am court ordered to be allowed to talk to him at least once a day via phone, web, whatever. I am also court-ordered to pay $375/mo in child support. This has all been within the last few months, and also during that time, my employment came to an end (which helped me make the decision to move back in w/mom). I am caught up on payments, except this past month. I hadn't found a job (I found one this past week and employment starts in 2wks) at the time, and as "punishment", she is not allowing me to speak to my son. This is honestly, slowly, killing me. What can I do to speak to my son, being 3000mi away and unable to pay my lawyers the ridiculous amounts they require to do Anything?

You can file a petition for contempt and request the court to sanction her for not allowing you communication with your child. Set a hearing date and have her served. REquest the court to allow you to appear by telephone. You can get the forms off the interenet under coj.net - family court.
