That is up to the interpretation of the courts and why the arrears exist.
No they can not. The key here is the "custodial parent" . You may be able to go to court. But if you keep the child and you are not the custodial parent and there is a court order saying the other parent is the custodial parent, all that person has to do is call the police, and the non custodial parent would have to give up the child.
This can be done though the use of a mediator, but the change still needs to be filed with the court for approval. You do avoid the attorney fees. It would be a Propria Persona (Pro Se) presentation. see link
You need to come to a new custody agreement for any changes to be made; have your lawyers make the necessary arrangements if the two parents cannot agree (in writing) themselves.
As a parent with joint custody, the school will allow them to sign anything related to their own child. If they have been absent from the child's life, contact your lawyer to make the necessary changes to your custody order.
A person can sue for almost any reason. Whether or not it is a justifiable case is usually the question. Was there emotional and/or physical injury to the plaintiff? Was there any monetary loss? What purpose if any would litigation serve. Lawsuits are not, as a rule timely, inexpensive or even the solution to the problem(s). A counselor/mediator however, might be more helpful.
Barring any changes in Child Support law, there is no Statute of Limitations on arrears. This means that the noncustodial parent will never be free of accumulated arrears plus interest accrued until the full amount has been paid either to the custodial parent or the custodial parent's estate, if they have died.
The parties cannot make any changes in the court orders unless they petition the court for a modification. The mother should petition the court ASAP to be allowed to claim the child as her dependent for tax purposes and she should file a motion for contempt as well to collect the child support arrears.
Child support id ordered by a judge, therfore any amendments and/or changes to a child support odred must go through the court. I suggest contacting the child support office in your area and they can advise you how to go from there.
Yes, until modified by the court. see links
Of course, there is no law preventing the individual from moving out of state if he or she is not the primary custodial of the minor child or children. However, a child support order is valid even when an obligated parent changes resident states, as all US states honor and uphold existing support orders.
Generally not, however the non-custodial parent may file for modification of the support order based on changes in financial circumstances.
The parties must return to court and have the child support order modified. Otherwise, the obligor is required to obey the existing child support order by law. Verbal changes made between the parties are hard to prove and people change their minds. The answer in this case would be whatever the court decides based upon the available evidence.
Either parent or the CSEU can file a petition in Family Court to request a modification (change) to an existing child support order. The modification petition should be based on the fact that either the custodial or noncustodial parent's circumstances have materially changed (e.g., change in income or other changes in circumstances). https://newyorkchildsupport.com/child_support_services.html
The site http://www.alllaw.com/calculators/Childsupport/ ask several questions that would help you figure out a rough number, since the amount changes depending on where you live
Perhaps, and probably. As with all such matters, the father or noncustodial parent must petition the courts with regard to changes to the existing order.
Since a Child Support Order is a Court Order the Court can change their Order as they see fit, regardless of what the Non-custodial parent, or the custodial parent think. The Court does not need your "consent" to issue an order. The Non-custodial and custodial parent would receive notice of a Court hearing or administrative hearing prior to any changes being made to the Court's Order, so it is important to show up to the hearing! This is not to be construed as legal advice, always seek the advise of an attorney to preserve your rights.
When it comes to things like appearance changes, it's best to speak to the other parent. Having amicable dialogue and being on the same page is better for the children in the long run rather than doing something that the other parent may not agree with.
