More details to this question:
My daughters father has been on time until lately he is getting later and later on sending me child support. This is court order but he has been sending me the check himself, how can I get it through the courts and not through him? He lives in Dallas, Ga and I live in Palm Harbor, Florida. Thank you for your help!

Hopefully you obtained an Income Withholding Order when the Court entered the Judgment for child support. An Income Withholding Order is directed to the father's employer, and requires the employer to take the child support out of the father's paycheck. That way he has no choice in the matter.
if an income Withholding Order was not entered, you can request the court to do so now. Once you obtain the order, make sure you send a certified copy by Certified mail to the father's employer.
Good luck,
