Unless he has assets, business, or otehjr contacts with Arizona, those arrears cannot be enforced in Arizona.
I would thus urge you to seek Colorado legal advice.
I would need to know more. We can do so through "Guardianship", or through "Custody by a Non-Parent".
We can certainly help you consider and then pursue your options.
One of our attorneys can explain the issues and procedures better in person. As you can imagine, there is too much to cover via email. We offer free 1/2 hour consultations, in which we can discuss your matter in detail.
Please call us directly to discuss the specifics of your matter, or contact my assistant Gina or my paralegal Jennifer to schedule your free 1/2 hour consultation.
