Upaya Mantan Istri Dalam Menuntut Nafkah Anak Pasca Perceraian

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to answer how ex-wives' efforts in demanding child support after divorce. The research method used is empirical normative with deductive approach analysis. The results of the study stated that, if related to the problems in this paper that concern efforts that can be made to force the male parent (father) to fulfill the contents of the decision of the Religious Court that punishes him to provide for the child, then the mother can request the execution of payment of living expenses to the Religious Court to force the male parent (father) to provide for the child's bread. The mother can apply for execution against the male parent (father) who neglects the obligation to provide for the child, of course, it can only be done if the male parent (father) has property that can be executed. The issue of living costs cannot also be overcome through legal remedies if it turns out that the property of his parents does not exist, so even if he asks for execution it will be in vain. Furthermore, if from the beginning, the cost of living is not requested by the mother at the time of examination of the divorce dispute and then it turns out that the male parent (father) did not provide the child's bread, then the mother can file a claim for child support against the male parent (father) to the Religious Court which is separate from the previous divorce dispute.
