You will likely do great harm to your custody case, if you with-hold child support. Until and unless the Court enters an Order modifying child support, by law, you need to continue to pay your obligation.

The above information is provided without any payment/consideration having been received, and without full knowledge of all of the facts.

An internet inquiry is no substitution for an in-office consultation with an attorney.

If your situation falls within the Greater Tampa Bay area, I would be happy to schedule you for a no obligation half hour office consultation. The main office is in Dunedin, with a satellite location in Tampa.

Feel free to Google me.

No. One has nothing to do with the other.
