She's looking for child support. I handle a lot of out of state cases. Where are you from and is there any prior order of support? This is a matter that may not cost you much to get an attorney and I would suggest you do, because without one, the child support is often calculated wrong - and not in your favor!

My initital consultations are always free, so feel free to call me at 732/247/3340 and we can discuss your case.

I agree with the other poster. The definitional part of the statute is:

I have listed some of the definitions below. This is not the complete statute.

N.J. Stat. � 2A:4-30.65 (2006)

� 2A:4-30.65. Definitions relative to child support proceedings

As used in this act:

"Child" means a person, whether over or under the age of majority, who is or is alleged to be owed a duty of support by the person's parent or who is or is alleged to be the beneficiary of a support order directed to the parent.

"Child support order" means a support order for a child, including a child who has attained the age of majority under the law of the issuing state.

"Duty of support" means an obligation imposed or imposable by law to provide support for a child, spouse, or former spouse, including an unsatisfied obligation to provide support.

"Home state" means the state in which a child lived with a parent or a person acting as parent for at least six consecutive months immediately preceding the time of filing of a complaint or comparable pleading for support and, if a child is less than six months old, the state in which the child lived from birth with any of them. A period of temporary absence of any of them is counted as part of the six-month or other period.

"Initiating state" means a state from which a proceeding is forwarded or in which a proceeding is filed for forwarding to a responding state under this act or a law or procedure substantially similar to this act, or under a law or procedure substantially similar to the "Uniform Reciprocal Enforcement of Support Act," or the "Revised Uniform Reciprocal Enforcement of Support Act."

"Obligor" means an individual, or the estate of a decedent who owes or is alleged to owe a duty of support; who is alleged but has not been adjudicated to be a parent of a child; or who is liable under a support order.

"Register" means to record a support order or judgment determining parentage in the registering tribunal.
