What will happen if the Respondent refuses to submit documents to the Maintenance Enforcement Officer?

Updated by MLAW
If the Respondent refuses to submit documents to the Maintenance Enforcement Officer, the Maintenance Enforcement Officer will exercise powers to conduct fact-finding to obtain information about the Respondent's financial circumstances. The Maintenance Enforcement Officer will also update the Court that the Respondent failed to submit documents to the Maintenance Enforcement Officer. Thereafter, the Maintenance Enforcement Officer will prepare a report with the information obtained from the third party agencies, and submit it to the court.
