Depends if the money is owed to your Mother or the county for reimbursement of welfare. If its not owed to the county your mother can negotiate a lump sum settlement if your father is in position to make a lump sum payment. YourMother would want to make the deal attractive for your Father to want to pay in a lump sum.

It depends on other issues too, such as whether your mother ever got an order in place to pay child support.
