Under the law in Arizona the only action that will relieve a biological parent from the obligation to pay support is the adoption of the child by another. The adoption may be accomplished either by the consent of the biological parent, or by the termination of the biological parent's rights. Until the order of adoption of the child an action may be brought to require the payment of child support by the biological parent.
