Judges have a lot of discretion about retroactive support. I would definitely raise this as a defense.
The order goes to child support enforcement to persecute.
It is likely that the judge will enter a child support order and may assess an amount for back child support.
Through an order issued either by a judge or by the State's child support agency.
Whatever you do, do not stop paying child support. You have to get the current order modified by a judge to be able to stop the payments.
An order for withholding signed by either a judge or the State's child support agency.
With good cause.
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.
Until the judge signs it, it isn't an order.

Yes
The judge will determine based on needs and finances. Most states have guidelines that must be followed by the judge who issues the child support order.
That depends on the cause and the judge
