Yes, if there is an active support order in place the obligated parent must adhere to the terms or risk being found in contempt of a court order. Child support and visitation are two completely different issues and the non compliance of a custodial parent to allow the other parent visitation has no bearing on the child support obligation. A parent who wishes to have contact with their children and is not able to do so, should consult with qualified legal counsel or agency for assistance in obtaining an order of visitation, compliance to an order of visitation, domestic mediation on the matter or other available options.

If you live in the US... Yes. Child support has nothing to do with visitation. However, if you have court-ordered visitation, Daughter does not have the right to refuse to follow the court order. Take it back to court.

Can a mother move out of state PA with her daughter if the babys father does not want her to Father has paid support and has had visitation weekly Nothing has been through the courts?

You don't say how old the child is. What are your reason's for leaving the state. Is this move in the child's best interest. Does the biological father object. Legal papers mean nothing. Are you doing the morally right thing for your daughter and her relationship with her father. If you are moving for financial reasons, just make sure your daughter and her father continue to have on going visitation and contact as often as possible. That is not your right to take away.
