In Ohio child support differs by counties. According to my husband's case they are not allowed to use my income to figure the amount of support he pays to his ex.
No.The new spouse is not responsible for the support of children from a previous relationship of his or her partner.
In community property states the court in some cases can use the combined income of a couple who remain married when it pertains to support of a child born as a result of the husband's infidelity.
ANSWER
Not that I have seen. They SHOULD impute income to her based on her age, education and past earning ability. But generally that only applies to a man. The mother can claim nearly any absurdly low amount and the court will accept it. The man however can be unemployed due to no fault of his own, have absolutely no income, and the court will impute income at what ever he was earning at his highest point. Then they will take his license, passport, etc, and jail him when he is unable to pay. And he is not afforded a lawyer to represent him because this is not a CRIMINAL case. Never mind he is still in jail. But he has "the keys" to the jail if he pays the support that he couldn't pay before he was locked away. Debtors prison?
Yes, but only by court order. see link
Refuses or is not able to in this economy? Of the two, not getting access to the child is far more damaging to the child and society as a whole. We don't need more another fatherless child adding to the crime rate. see link below.
Not if the father hasn't requested a visitation schedule. The mother should allow the father to visit with the child. However, if there is no visitation order in place she won't "get into trouble" if he's is not having visitations with the child. Child support and visitations are two separate issues as far as the court is concerned.Fathers are entitled to visitations. If the mother refuses the father should return to court and request a visitation schedule. The mother will be legally obligated to obey that order.Not if the father hasn't requested a visitation schedule. The mother should allow the father to visit with the child.

Mothers: Mama or Mother Fathers: Pa, Papa or Father
The father should contact the clerk of the court where the support order was enacted for information on how to rectify the situation. Even if the mother has agreed to stop support payments it is not legally binding until the court issues an order stating such. If the father is in arrears he will most likely be obligated to pay the amount before the court considers ending support obligations. Likewise, if the support payments have been made through the state's social services it may not be possible for the mother to or father to engage in the action canceling support obligations.
Not really. It depends on the situation.
Divorce is something that happens between spouses, not between parents and children. A child's refusal to see the father does not affect the father's child support obligation.
Her father, Bobby Brown refuses to take her off life support and is hoping for a miracle.
What country are you in?
The same if he's not paying at all.
If the father refuses, a default order can be entered against him. Mothers use the right of privacy to prevent the test see links below
If he has them and refuses to return them you can call the police. If you want him to have legal physical custody the both of you need to go back to court and have the custody order modified and the father's child support order terminated.
Yes. File for a child support order with your local county. They will initiate a paternity test on the potential father, if that is not the father, they can test other men. They will order him to submit to the DNA test. If he refuses then they can actually rule him the father in some states.
Yes unless the mother gets remarried and the child is adopted by the new husband
yes...if the father has custody of the child or children then a woman has to pay child support just like a man.
