No. Arrearages in child support must be payed according to the terms of the court order. Custodial issues and child support are two completely different matters and are treated accordingly under the state laws where the minor child/children reside.

If you're asking about retroactive support (support due for a period prior to the entry of the first order), not unpaid support that accrued as the result of an order, it can be waived with the court's approval.

Who pays child support when no legal custody has been established?

Determining child support has only one goal which is to determine medical, financial and daycare support. Custody is NOT determined when child support is established. To establish child support you have to go to court.

If custody is not established then the mother has custody
