More details to this question:
The mother of my son and I have court ordered child support orders. She refuses to follow them. Since about November, she has disconnected all her phones, where she could be reached, deleted her facebook pages and her families, and I am not sure if she moved or what. I missed his birthday on the 7th and he was suppose to be with me. I have called the attorney general and the court about this matter, I am low on cash and do not know what to do. Please help me out. I really want to see my son and it's like she is dening me this right that was agreed upon us.

If the mother of your son is in violation of the court order that provides for visitation (periods of possession) for you with your son, you can file a motion for enforcement of those orders with the court that issued the original order on child support, conservatorship and possession. Since you say you are low on cash, I'll mention that depending on the county you are in, there may be a local Domestic Relations Office or some similar office or agency that would file a motion for enforcement on your behalf without your having to pay to hire your own attorney. If your county does not have such an office where you can get that service, you may be able to seek help from your local volunteer legal services (VLS) office or from Legal Aid. Some county bar associations have pro-bono attorneys who volunteer for VLS and some also have "match" programs where attorneys agree to work for a reduced rate. It is also possible for you to file the motion for enforcement with the court without an attorney (pro se).
