First of all you must have or try to have some sort of commuication with the child's mother. If this fails and you believe that you would make the better parent to raise the child get a lawyer and get your proof together and witnesses and go to court. If you have already gotten full legal and phyical custody of your child then your ex wife is breaking the law and can be arrested for violating the custody papers,all you have to do is take your papers to the police station and they will get the child back to you. Make sure you are paying child support most states require that parents pay to the child at least $150 dollars each month weather the parent has a job or not. And the custodial parent can't keep the child away from the other parent if they are behind on support,unless the court has ordered supervised visits.
The mother should notify family services.
I'm guessing DNA test?
That does not mean you have full custody. Even though the father is not around you should still go for full custody. Theres always that chance the father could back around and that child is not with you he has just as much right to that child as you do.
Child support arrears do not go away. If the state supported his child for a period of time then he must pay the arrears.
If he has them and refuses to return them you can call the police. If you want him to have legal physical custody the both of you need to go back to court and have the custody order modified and the father's child support order terminated.
Paternity will have to be established by DNA test before the court makes you pay child support so I wonder how you began paying in the first place. You will have to prove you are not the father and then go back to the same court that issued the child support order.
If the father has legal custody and the child is a minor - yes.
Contact your State's child support agency. Be polite but persistent. Good luck!
Theoretically, the court could go back to the child's birth, but generally two years is the limit and, if you're just now finding out that you're the father, it might be considerably less than that.
no
A child cannot be forced into seeing a parent if they don't want to. It's their decision and nobody elses. That is not correct, you can force the child to go, or the father can force them to go as they can not make any legal descions the parents do
The parents have to go back to court to file a modification of the custody order. They should also terminate any child support order that obligates the father to pay child support
