No. Most judges will only collect the child support due at the time that you filed for Child Support so if you filed a case with child support on June 2008 and then got it finalized July of 2009 you would only get from the date that child support was filed, no more and no less.
That is the only back child support you will be getting.
You can always go back to court and get the child support started and all, but you cannot ask for back child support if you refused it and you did not fill out a Child Support filed case, with your state either.
Again get an attorney and/or call your child Support Enforcement Agency and make sure of the laws in your state, but this is in most states. Utah, California and Maine are all this way.

What are reasons not to pay child support?
There are no valid reasons not to get child support. That money is supposed to be used to help raise the child.

Can a father win custody if he is behind in child support?
it all depends on state that you live in, however, a father has a right to see his children despite his history of child support payments. the mother cannot legally refuse to allow the father to the child or children due to lack of support, unless there is a court order or restraining order that legally allows her to withold visitation. Paying child support and visitation rights have nothing to do with each other.Just because you dont/do pay child support doesnt mean you can/cannot visit your child
Can you file abandonment charges even though you receive child support?
No, you can not file for abandonment charges. You can however, refuse the child support and take the parent to court. If they refuse to attend the court date and/or don't push for rights and you believe they are an unfit parent, then they may loose their rights. This will be a long process, but if a child is involved and are believed to be abused or neglected then it is well worth it. Before beginning a long process like this, make sure that you really believe that the parent is unfit. Once the process is started there is no going back!
