Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
Hi. I have childsupport arrears which I am paying on according to income withholding order (plus current support which will end soon). I was trying to figure out how much my arrears still are and noticed that there was no interest assessed the last 10 years (also never). My order is a Florida child support order. Since no interest has been assessed so far on my arrears will there still be interest assessed once my current support obligation will cease and the enforcement agency will compute how much arrears are still to be paid by me - in short is that a mistake that there is no interest assessed or is there no interest assessed in some cases and if so why not and when is there interest assessed and how much in Florida. I looked it up and it said 4.75% interest.

Generally no interest is charged unless the Judge specifically orders it.
Unless the order says interest there is none. You got lucky.
