Maybe, obviously if the order(s) pertains to two or more children residing in different jurisdictions then it's legal. The other reason might be that the child support was in arrears therefore the government agency or court of jurisdiction in that state is allowed to collect money owed.

Do you have to pay child support for a baby you dont know?
Yes. So long as paternity is established, you will have to pay

terminated.
