Yes unless agreed not to be payed with the judge.

The child support is an order given by a judge in a custody settlement. It has nothing to do with bankruptcy. You are still responsible financially for a child you help to bring into this world.

That depends on a judge's ruling, but child support can take up to 55% of the gross.

No. Alimony is intended to support the ex-spouse (generally, for a limited period of time). Child support is intended to support the children.
How or where can you go to check to see if your spouse is paying child support or support to another family without your knowledge?
Child support requires a court order signed by a judge, so there is always a public record. Contact your county court house's records department and find out how to do a search of court records with your spouse's name.
What does the judge do to you when you go to court for non-court ordered child support?
It is likely that the judge will enter a child support order and may assess an amount for back child support.

Child support is court ordered. The judge decides who pays child support and how much.
Will a new spouse have to pay child support in the state of PA?
Unlike most states, Pennsylvania has no provision for allowing or disallowing a new spouses income in the calculations. It is left at the discretion of the judge ordering support. In many cases, if the new spouse has a significant income which creates a large income variation between the custodial and non-custodial households, a judge will rule to include the new spouse's income in the calculations.
How can a woman in NC get child support when the judge has ordered it and spouse still will not pay?
I suggest that you contact your State's child support agency. When you get an interview with them, bring all the papers relating to your child support: birth certificates, acknowledgments of paternity, court orders, payment records, etc. Be polite but persistent. Good luck!
In the state of Louisiana if the non-custodial parent in incarcerated and gets married while incarcerated can his spouse's income be used for child support?

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. If the custodial parent tries to refuse child support before a judge, the judge will override the custodial parent's wishes and explain that the child support belongs to the child, not to the custodial parent.
How do you report a judge when he tells your spouse to pay child support and the spouse won't pay and judge won't make him?
Depends on the circumstance of why the obligor is not paying. In this economy, with the majority of fathers unemployed, unemployable, and/or indigent, there is little judge can do. It would be unusual for a judge to not do anything in a case where the obligor is financially capable of paying as the state receives matching federal funds for all support paid. If there is a clear violation of ethics, then it can be reported to the state supreme court of judicial review.
