Michigan may be able to try to collect child support from you for periods prior to the adoption when your sister had the child. If there was ever an order for you to pay child support, Michigan may be trying to collect on the old, unpaid obligation plus interest. You should ask your question of a Michigan attorney because that attorney will know the Michigan child support laws and be able to advise you on those laws. The attorneys who answer Texas questions are usually only licensed to practice in the State of Texas. You may want to confirm that the termination was finalized. If your sister has custody but the termination was not finalized, the state most certainly will try to get one or both parents to pay support.
