Memo to guardians, custodians, foster parents on collecting alimony for the maintenance of wards

I. Sequence of actions.

1) According to Art. 60 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation, the child has the right to receive maintenance from his parents. In the event that parents do not provide maintenance for their minor children, funds for the maintenance of minor children (alimony) are collected from the parents in a judicial proceeding. In accordance with Art. 148 of the Family Code, children under guardianship (guardianship) are entitled to the alimony due to them.
It should be borne in mind that, by virtue of Art. 71 and 74 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation, deprivation of parental rights or restriction of parental rights does not relieve parents from the obligation to support their child.
Art. 145 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation regulates that guardianship or guardianship is established over children left without parental care for the purpose of their maintenance, upbringing and education, as well as to protect their rights and interests.
Thus, in order to protect the property rights of minors, the guardian (custodian), as the legal representative of the child, is obliged to control the fulfillment by parents of the obligation to pay child support. Therefore, if at the time of the establishment of guardianship (trusteeship) alimony from the parents of the ward child was not collected and paid on a voluntary basis, then the guardian (custodian) must file an application with the court for the recovery of alimony. This category of cases is considered by magistrates both at the place of residence of the guardian (custodian) and at the place of residence of the parents (one of them).

2) In accordance with art. 33 of the FEDERAL LAW dated 02. 10.2007 N 229-ФЗ "ON EXECUTIVE PROCEEDINGS" enforcement actions are performed by a bailiff at the place of residence, place of residence of the debtor.
The recoverer is a citizen in whose favor or in the interests of which a writ of execution has been issued. The debtor is a citizen who is obliged by an executive document to pay alimony.
Thus, the original writ of execution for the recovery of alimony is submitted by the recoverer to the department of the bailiff service at the place of residence (at the place of residence) of the debtor, or at the last known place of residence of the debtor,
In accordance with Art. 429 of the Civil Procedure Code of the Russian Federation for each court decision, only one writ of execution is issued. In order to prevent the loss of the writ of execution, you must first make a copy and mark the bailiff service on the acceptance of the writ of execution directly on its copy. It is also necessary to write an application with a request to initiate enforcement proceedings and attach to it a copy of the savings book opened in the name of the child.

3) In accordance with Art. 84 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation for children left without parental care, alimony is paid to the guardian (custodian) of the children or their adoptive parents.
Thus, if guardianship is appointed after the issuance of a writ of execution on the recovery of alimony from parents deprived of parental rights, then in accordance with Art. 44, 203 of the Civil Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, it is necessary to apply for a change in the procedure and method for executing a court decision. This application is submitted to the court that issued the decision on the recovery of alimony. The court issues a ruling on the replacement of the recoverer, which is sent to the parties in the case. This determination must be submitted to the department of the bailiff service, in whose production enforcement proceedings have been initiated.

4) After submitting the application and the original of the writ of execution to the bailiff service, the bailiff initiates enforcement proceedings, about which a “Decree on the initiation of enforcement proceedings” is issued, which is sent to the parties . .

5) You need to know that in accordance from Art. 50 of the FEDERAL LAW dated 02.10.2007 N 229-FZ "ON EXECUTIVE PROCEEDINGS", the parties to enforcement proceedings have the right to familiarize themselves with the materials of enforcement proceedings, make extracts from them, make copies of them, submit additional materials, file petitions, participate in enforcement actions, give oral and written explanations in the process of performing enforcement actions, give their arguments on all issues arising in the course of enforcement proceedings, object to the petitions and arguments of other persons participating in enforcement proceedings, file challenges, appeal against the decisions of the bailiff, his actions (inaction ).

6) At the request of the party in the enforcement proceedings, the bailiff issues a ruling on the calculation of alimony arrears. As necessary, in accordance with the plan for the protection of the rights of the child, a copy of the resolution on the calculation of arrears of alimony must be submitted to the personal file of the ward

II. Alimony has not been received for a long time - what to do?

In accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation, the main task of bailiffs is the enforcement of a court decision that has entered into legal force. In order to implement the above task, the bailiff requests from the tax inspectorate, the pension fund and other organizations information about the debtor's earnings and other income, bank accounts or property that can be foreclosed. Thus, if alimony is not received on the child’s account for a long time, this means that the bailiff cannot find the debtor, or his income or property, which can be foreclosed.
In this case, the legislation provides for certain opportunities for the bailiff, however, as a rule, these actions are performed by the bailiff only at the request of the claimant.

1) If the bailiff cannot find the debtor (the debtor does not live at the place of residence or at the place of the last known place of residence).
In this case, the bailiff, on his own initiative or at the request of the recoverer, issues an order to search for the debtor, which is approved by the senior bailiff.

2) If the bailiff cannot find the income or property of the debtor.
If the bailiff cannot find the debtor's income or property that can be seized, this can only mean that the debtor is deliberately hiding from the obligation to pay alimony. In this case, the legislation of the Russian Federation provides for some restrictive measures, as well as the liability of the debtor for failure to comply with the court decision.
In accordance with art. 67 of the FEDERAL LAW dated 02.10.2007 N 229-FZ "ON EXECUTIVE PROCEEDINGS" if the debtor fails to fulfill the requirements for the recovery of alimony, the bailiff has the right, at the request of the recoverer or on his own initiative, to issue a decision on a temporary restriction on the debtor's departure from the Russian Federation. Thus, if the court decision on the recovery of alimony is not executed for a long time, and also if this decision is not executed in full (i.e. there is a debt in paying alimony), then it is necessary to write an application to the department of the judicial service bailiffs with a request to temporarily restrict the debtor's departure from the Russian Federation.
In addition, the legislation of the Russian Federation provides for criminal liability of debtors for malicious evasion from paying alimony.
Thus, in the event of a long-term (usually more than 6 months) non-payment of alimony for the maintenance of a ward child, the guardian (custodian) must submit an application to the bailiff service with a request to consider the issue of bringing the parent (parents) to criminal responsibility.
