Six months of non support is grounds for termination of parental rights.

Good afternoon.
If you're spouse moves away and goes 6 months without providing any financial support you may file a petition with the Family Court to dissolve their parental rights.
There are certain procedures you have to follow as far as attempting to provide your spouse notice amongst other things.
If you would like to consult with an attorney contact my office for a free consultation.
