What can I do on a child support reduction?

In Arizona the only way that court ordered child support is modified is through another court order modifying the support. You should consult with an experienced family law attorney in your area to review the orders, and potentially file a contempt action against the father for the unpaid support. Different counties, and states have different rules, so it is important that you seek local counsel.

Going to school would not, ordinarily, stop child support. Attaining legal age is the stopping point, at least in Nebraska. Most child support orders indicate what the support will be when there is only one child remaining for whom support is due. If yours does not, you can go back to Court to have that determination made.

You can file an application with the court and ask the Judge to enforce the Order of support that calls for you to be paid the $500.00 per week. You should talk with an attorney about the timing of when to file this application and what your ex's counter moves will probably be. Again, you should talk with an attorney about the timing of when it would be best to file the application.

Take him back to court to modify the order and increase his child support.
