If the person paying child support goes to court about it, it's possible. However, it doesn't "just happen", nor is it legal for someone to stop paying child support without a new court order specifically stating so (unless the child reaches the age at which the court order says child support can stop; in that case it's not necessary to go back to court about it).
What else can I help you with?
Can a child be kept from a parent due to a lack of child support payment?
No. Child support and visitation are separate.
If there is DNA and the father is ordered to pay child support and is behind does he have the right to visit the child if there is no court order to do so?
Yes. Visitation cannot be denied because of lack of payment of child support. The child support still needs to be paid because there could be jail time involved if there is too much owed and late. BUT, you cannot use visitation priveledges as retribution because (its the law, and) the visitation is for the children, not yourself. The child support is there to assist in the expences of raising children.
If I paying child support and having regular visitation with my child do I have to continue visitation if my child is abusive to me and others?
One thing I do know is that visitation and support are two separate issues. Whether or not you utilize your visitation rights, does not mean whether or not you pay child support. So in my opinion, no, you don't have to visit...but you still must pay support...and on another note...do you think that maybe your influence might help your child with whatever is making him/her abusive? And maybe your lack of influence might hurt him/her? I am very pro-involvement as far as parents go. Please try to solve the problem by means other than abandonment.
Can you stop visitations due to the lack of child support in Georgia?
Visitation rights and child support are two different issues and if they are going to be changed it has to be done in court. The judge will take into consideration why child support has stopped. They prefer the child to have access to both parents even though one can not pay for w/e reason. The child should not be punished because the parent is poor or temporarily out of a job. If it's simply refusing to pay the parent can face prison.
Can a pregnant mistress file charges to the father of his child for lack of support?
Yes, the father of the child is obligated to provide support.
Can a father win custody if he is behind in child support?
it all depends on state that you live in, however, a father has a right to see his children despite his history of child support payments. the mother cannot legally refuse to allow the father to the child or children due to lack of support, unless there is a court order or restraining order that legally allows her to withold visitation. Paying child support and visitation rights have nothing to do with each other.Just because you dont/do pay child support doesnt mean you can/cannot visit your child
My husand receive a letter from child support. it states a court date for a notice of lack of prosecution and notice of hearing on motion to dismiss for lack of prosecution?
If a person receives 2 court papers for dismissal for lack of prosectution in regards for child support. Is there a time period that person has to reopen the case
What does lack of jurisdiction mean in child support cases?
"Lack of Jurisdiction" means that whatever court or agency it applies to does not have the authority to address the issue.
Can a judge order a non custodial parent to pay an additional amount of child support because he lives over 300 miles away and cannot visit the child each week?
If the judge orders it, then you have no choice. Unfortunately the judge can make all sorts of crazy judgements. If you disagree, file an appeal. For now, do what the judge says so you don't hurt your chances of a successful appeal. *The judge might issue such an order, but it would not hold up if contested. Child support and visitation are two separate issues. Child support is based on the physical needs of a child and has nothing to do with the involvement or lack of same by the non custodial obligated parent.
Can parental rights be taken away for lack of visiting the child?
It is possible. An absent parent with visitation rights who never visits with the child may lose those rights and the court may eventually allow a legal adoption by a step parent. If your children are in foster care, and you have a case plan (to get them back), and fail to meet the requirements of your case plan by repeatedly missing visits, you may find your parental rights terminated.
If spouse is not biological father does he have visitation rights?
the family NEVER has the legal right of visitation if not awarded specifically by a state court. Morally, if the intentions of visitation are simply for acknowlegement of relation, then legal guardians(you) should discerningly, allow visits with blood relatives(them) under supervision of legal guardians(you). in other words, NO. ANSWER: Actually, in some states that isn't true. In Wisconsin there is a thing called Grandparent's Rights. This entails that the biological Grandparents are entitled to 1 weekend a month to see the child. I'm not sure what other states that applies in but it is something to look into to be sure of.
