Re: child support
1)You may be able to take a change of judge,
2)since non-payment of substaantial amounts is a crime, see if the prosecutor will do something criminally, especially if the county has a different judge for criminal matters, and
3) talk to the prosecutor about a tax intercept.
Good luck.
Re: child support
It sounds to me like you know that he is working, and where he is working. If you can have a notice of income withholding prepared, the clerk has to send that out whenever they receive information about a new employer. Unless the court has issued a reason saying that this can not be done for some reason in your case, you can do this and the judge has nothing to say about it.
The prosecutor's office or a private attorney should be able to do this for you easily.
