If the father has visitation rights and the mother refuses to allow the father those rights, then the father can sue the mother in a civil contempt proceeding. If she doesn't have a good reason for disallowing the visitation then she can be held in contempt of court. There are various remedies including giving the father more visitation to make up for the visitation that was disallowed by the mother or even giving the father custody, but usually, the judge will just order the mother to allow the visits. His paying or not paying child support has nothing to do with whether or not he gets visitation (i.e. he gets visitation regardless of whether or not he is current with child support).
A mother does not render child support orders. The petition must be filed through the courts and the courts will render a decision according to state laws.
1) to pay support; 2) to petition the courts for visitation
If he was not married to the mother, nothing until granted them by the courts. see links
It depends on the state. In most states the father would still be required to pay child support, even though he is living with the mother and the child. However, if the father was financially supporting the mother and child, it's likely that the courts would suspend the child support order.
The courts are the ones who award the support to the mother. If the father, all of a sudden, begins supporting the mother and child, he is still obligated to pay support according to the court. That's because the courts don't know about it. They person involved would have to have the support removed at the court level. But morally speaking, he does not need to pay the support and if he doesn't, wouldn't get in any trouble unless the mother turns him in.
If the father have visitation, shared custody or paying child support she will need his and the courts consent.
In Missouri, after 30 days the support can stop, but in most states, a modification motion needs to be filed with the courts.
Child support is calculated based on income of the father (or mother in such a case). If the father is unemployed his child support will still be calculated based on whatever minimum wage is in your state. The only time this does not apply is when the father is on disability. Welfare shouldn't matter.
It's all up to the courts to decide. A mother can request full sole legal custody of the child even if the father has visitation rights and pays child support. The mother does need to prove to the courts why full sole legal custody is in the child's best interest.
last i knew unless there is a step father willing to adopt the courts will not let you give up rights if there is a step father willing to adopt you will not have to pay child support
You can in California
Yes. As long as he hasn't established paternity through the courts and have visitation, custody or pay child support. In that case she needs his and the courts permission.
