How long do you have to file contempt of court charges for non payment of child support in Louisiana?

You can file until the child is 18, or until they are 19 if they are still in high school full time. THE CHILD can file after that. You could also open a case with child support enforcement and let them do it. It's only $25 to do that. Either way, it takes a while. You probably shouldn't try this without an attorney and attorneys are expensive. That's why I suggested child support enforcement.


How do you stop child support when the child lives with non-custodial parent paying?

File for a change of custody. File for stopping child support. Contact the local agency to whom you actually pay the child support.**Additional Answer**The way the US child support system works is, in a nutshell...A Court/Judge 'ordered' the support to commence, for a certain amount/time, when things were first established with the support agency. That particular Court/Judge is the proper place/ones to contact to get the court's 'Support Order' changed or to cancel it. A Judge will have to 'order' the support be changed or terminated.


Does a parent still have to pay child support if child moves out on there own?

If the child is emancipated, which generally means self-sufficient, the obligor should be able to get the order for support terminated. Certainly, if the child is still under the obligations of the parents, you can file for custody, if if no emancipation takes place. If the child refuses parental control, than file to have them emancipated, but state laws vary from state to state on this. In New York, child support continues to age 21, regardless of where the child lives. see links below


Father does not see his child on visitstion weekends?

Father doesn't have to see his children, unless the mother really wants to. The mother, however, could go to court and file for a new child support based on the fact that the father is not spending any time with his kids, and then the child support ammount will be raised.


What if a single mother drops child off with father and does not come back?

If you did not request child support at the time of the order can you collect it later?

Yes, once paternity of the child has been established the custodial parent can file suit for child support at any time until the child reaches the legal age of majority and in a few exceptional cases after that time. The majority of US states do, however, have a statute of limitations relating to the amount of time the custodial parent has to file to collect support arrearages.
