The judge can keep you in jail till your ready to be a human being and pay child support.he can order a person to get a job and keep it and do anything to get fired for to avoid paying.if you are a minor your parents can be made to support a baby made by a minor.

[hotwheels122287]

you can be in there as long as you decide not to pay it, once you change your mind and agree to pay then they will let you out MAYBE

That fully depends on the judge, but it can take two years just to get a hearing.

Why are there arrears? If there is a legitimate reason, such as unemployment, the obligor can still file for a reduction in them. Most Child Support obligors do not know there is free help from the state, by federal law, to obtain a modification. At the minimum, a motion should be filed to have any interest penalties set aside, which can double or triple the amount owed. Of the total media “reported” amount of child support owed, 83% if interest penalties and not unpaid child support. These links will teach what needs to be known about child support.

For 22 years, I have volunteered my time working with divorced/single fathers dealing in family law issues, such as child support, teaching them about what the states are not telling support obligors.
