You can't personally contact the judge like that because he has to make the decision on his own, he's not allowed to be swayed by public opinion.

If you trully believe 100% that this man is the father of your child then whatever happens I would make him pay!\n\nHunt him down, drag him through the courts and make the bastard pay for his child.\n\nHe can move to Timbuctoo if he likes, I would still make him pay. he can deny responsibility and say he's not the father as much as he likes, but I'd still make him pay. This man is threatening to move/demand DNA tests to intimidate you- he's trying to discredit you as a woman not to mention what he's doing to his child and thats very unfair. Why should you care what happens to someone who stoops as low as this? Why should you care if he struggles or not- He is in the wrong not you! \n \nI'm sure you don't want or need his money but that is not the point. He has a responsibility to this child and even if he refuses to accept he has a moral duty of care (which is very convenient don't you think?) he certainly has a financial responsibility which he should not be allowed to walk away from.\n\nIf I were you, I would demand that he TAKE his DNA test- let him prove that he IS the father of your child and allow him to look like the complete heartless arsehole he really is- What have you got to lose honey?\n\nRemember- you are the one holding the baby, you are the one who is facing up to the loving responsibility of being a good mother and you are the only one who can hold this man accountable for his actions.\n\nSorry, but I do not agree that ANY man who has children should be allowed to simply walk away from their legal responsibilities.\nNever mind the fathers rights- what about the rights of their child? \n\nHunt him down- get everything- make him pay and if you really don't need the money, then put it in trust for your son so that he can use it when he is older.\n\nThere is no shame in making this man pay.. after all he felt no shame in sleeping with you to create a life- he must now be held accountable for his actions!\n\nPlease don't let him away with this- you have the right to be able to life your life and bring up your son with a decent standard of living-the money will help.\nI think that you have had a very lucky escape- Men like this are the scum of the earth and you deserve better!\n\nGood luck.

You may not be able to, but the court can.  Is he under court order to pay child support?  Ask an attorney to follow up.\n\nI wish you Peace.

You have a child with this moron? File for child support and turn this guy in. He needs help, and you don't need him.

Start by contacting the Family Court in the Indiana county in question. They may refer you to a child support collection unit.

Go to your State Human Resources website and look up child support enforcement. Call them and keep calling them. they will garnish a person's wages and give you that money.

Contact and file a complaint with the attorney general in the county that ordered the support.\n\nIt will be collected from the parent who owes it no matter who they are.\n\nGood luck and God Bless

Contact your child support agency.  Click on your state and find your local office.\n\nhttp://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/cse/extinf.html

I did the same thing with my ex husband.  It cost much less than a lawyer and you can apply with the Attorney General for free to get the Child support and custody resolved.  Lawyers are all about the money.

If your mother received child support from the State in lieu of money from your dad, then she has nothing else coming and the State will go after him to recoup the monies they paid your mother.\n\nIf she received nothing, then it is a matter of the court and she (not you) must hire an attorney who is familiar with the procedures to go after him.

he needs to be a man and take responsibility.  He needs to stay out of jail.  Get a real job and send the money he can  most importantly be there as a father not just a paycheck.

You need to get a lawyer, go back to court, and re-negotiate  the terms of his child support. If he refuses to pay, he can go to jail. You're beig too soft on him. It's HIS child too! At  the least, he should drive to Mississippi every other time to get his child. He is using you like a dirty dish towel.....don't allow him to continue doing it! Take his butt back to court..make him step up to the pump, and be a Dad! He won't do it unless you make him though. Good Luck!!.

It is very sad that has happened but unfortunatly that may be his best option. Does he still pay his child support? He needs to continue paying it even if he is not seeing his son because if they do end up back in court it will look better on him. I know that if you do not have a child back from visitation on time the police can be called, I wonder if it works the other way to. ( like she's not having the boy there for his visitation time if he can call the police on her) He may also try to contact his local DSS office and explain the situation to them and see if they can help or they may know who to contact to help him. Good luck to your friend!

Patricia--if you're disabled and raising two children (not your own?) you should apply for every service your county has to offer you--ie food stamps, medical assistance, care taker supplements or cash aid, if available in your state.  The state will be compelled to collect partial repayment from the father (and mother if these are not your children.)  You won't have to wait for a deadbeat to pay--the state sends you the aid and collects partial repayment.  Your child should also be eligible for benefits off your social security if you haven't been collecting that already.  After you've applied for EVERYTHING your eligible for THEN go to your child support office and give them any information you have on the children's father (and mother).  If you do have an order for support and he is only making partial payments he still owes you that money.  Agencies are reluctant to take people who are 'making an effort' back to court because it encourages those who REALLY are trying to quit.  If he is just gaming the system--demand your case be enforced and he be taken back to court and held in contempt.\n\nGood luck!

Your playing with fire there. The court could very well take them away from all of you. You want child support from the biological father you file for it at the prosecutors office, and they handle it.
