Texas and child support
by Kelly
My nightmare begins. I have a court ordered child support for 5 kids. I have had the order in place since 1992. I have gone through the proper channels in asking the child support office to help with my case. I found the non-custodial parent and reported his where about several times over the last ten years. In hopes they would serve him, by the time the state decided to serve him on non-compliance with the court order. He had moved again. I reported places where he worked. By the time (6 months) they sent the order to the job to have the wages garnished, he would quit the job. He has been in and out of jail for DUI over the years. He was in TDCJ for DUI, 3rd degree felony charge. I reported this to the OAG. Five months later I was sent a letter stating they was closing my case Until I provide proof or reason to continue with the case. I called the office and sent a letter. I requested my case be continued as he was released from TDCJ a month before the OAG decided to close my case. He was released on parole for the state. Yet the OAG doesn't have anything to do with Parole. I asked that they request information from the parole office of the county he lives in. They in turn told me it was up to me to find the non-custodial parent to enforce the order. I was under the understanding that the state of Texas had the toughest laws of any state regarding child support! I have yet to see this. He is not even on the list of child support evaders! I can't seem to get the office I am going through to locate or enforce my order.
