Re: Child Support
You husband's children are entitled to his support without any court order. When the ruling was announced, he knew they needed to eat that very night, but waited for many weeks until it finally was taken out of his check. Find out his arearage amount and arrange its payment. He wont be arrested if he pays it. Pay by check; or at least get a receipt.
