Re: Unpaid child support
Once the unpaid support is reduced to a judgment, you can "sell" that judgment to someone for collection. There are professional agencies that do that.
Then it doesn't matter if it's for support or because a rampaging elephant caused damage. A judgment is a judgment.
Hope this helps answer your question.
