A judge determines if you have to pay child support. You may be required to undergo DNA testing. That might influence the judge's decision more than the name given the child or whether or not you signed a piece of paper.

Whether or not you have to pay child support depends on the laws of your jurisdiction. In many cases, if paternity is established, the biological father is legally obligated to provide financial support for the child regardless of the child's last name or whether any documents were signed. It is best to consult with a family law attorney to understand your rights and responsibilities in your specific situation.

Do you still pay child support if the child has a child and does not live with the mother?
Generally, if the child is still under the age of 18 you will still have to pay child support. However, there are generally provisions allowing you to re-evaluate child support amount and payments. Talk to the mother, and see if you can settle something out of court. However, if you have a legal binding document saying you have to pay, then you still have to pay.

I don't live in Cali but in most states the only time a child support case ends is when a child turns 18 or graduates from high school whichever comes last and not to exceed 19. Her having a baby should not have anything to do with your support.

What should you do if you have sole legal custody of your children and your ex has an order to pay child support and is entitled to visitation but he doesn't pay support and only visits?
The best thing to do is contact the child support agency and see what they say. I would contact them and let them know or remind them that he is not paying. If what you are saying is that he does not pay support but still wants visitaion rights and child support does not do anything or can not do anything then I would contact a lawyer who deals with child support cases. This is the best answer I can give to you. I hope it helps. I am glad you are keeping the two issues separate. However, you do need to report non-payment to the court. Some states will garnish wages for this purpose.

The child support goes to the one who have custody. If the grandparent still do and the child has just moved out temporarily, they will still get it. If the child is under 18 and has moved they also still get it unless the child is emancipated. If the child is 18 the child support generally end but it depends on the state laws and/or what you have written in the child support agreement.
