Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
child support order not being enforced by Attorney General office. Only two payments made within last three years and no visitation on non custodial parents part. Can I request to have the child support order stopped and request to have parental rights terminated so that child can be legally adopted?

Probably although you could still pursue payment of the unpaid child support accrued up to this point. I would think about whether it makes sense to terminate the existing child support during the adoption process or enforce the existing child support and essentially leave the child in the same position he or she is now but with the benefit of the child support.
