You are still liable for arrearage child support. If your ex was on assistance, then the state is pursuing the monies, to be reimbursed for the monies the state paid to support the children during that period of time. There are negotiable payment plans available. Contact them for a review hearing. Do not wait until the AG files an enforcement action with the court - it get worse rapidly then. Be proactive and deal with the problem, because it cannot be avoided.
