More details to this question:
plus additional interest. Is there a cap on how much they can collect from you based on your pay? A certain percentage? How does it work when you go to court? Can the x ask whatever amount they want? Or is the Judge going to base it on living expenses, pay, etc...? Please help. Thank you

50% is the maximum that can be garnished. If you are dealing with the Department of Child Support Services, you should go to that agency and discuss it with them. When you have arrears, it is at 10% with that agency.
