Since she owes over $10k, she is eligible to be prosecuted for felony nonsupport. Advise your child support agency that you want this done.

She is supposed to pay that support anyway she can. If she is not working she is suppose to send a personal check to the agency and they will process it obviously as her payment.

Deadbeat Mom's by: Anonymous
I too am a step-mother of a special needs child, whom my husband has custody of. She is still in school and her mother has just quit paying child support. The child is in a private school setting and the mother is court ordered to pay half of everything education wise, in addition to a small amount of actual child support. I want to know how I can get help collecting this. I do not want to spend $20,000 going back to court. I have a child support judgment in hand and just because I am able to go into debt to go back to court to enforce it, I am being told that is my only remedy. Does anyone know of another way?
