Hello. Terminating his rights does not end the support obligation he has for the child. You need to contact DHR or hire an attorney who can establish custody and child support for you when the time comes (in about 6 months). Best of luck.

You can always ask for it. Whether or not you receive it will be up to the judge who hears your case.

No. For it to be enforceable, the spouse will eventually need to be served papers.

I agree with what my colleague said. Also, it is unknown who would be raising the child. You, him (he can't if he's in prison), a family member, or foster care. As the parents, you both could be liable to pay child support if the state takes your baby and places it in foster care, or if... View More

Hello. File for a modification.

Hello. No, you will need to file with the court in the county where the case is located to stop child support. Thanks for your question!

Hello. No, not unless there is an Order from the Court stating they can. Thank you for the question.

Hello. She would need to ask the Court's permission or get him to submit to a test voluntarily. Weed is illegal in Alabama. It is against the law to partake, have possession of it, sell it, etc. You have an obligation to your other children to protect them from illegal drugs. Thank you for... View More

I've yet to see a Judge disallow a parental child support agreement. You still must file the child support forms as a matter of record in your case though. Thanks for your question.

Yes, either of you can always go back and request to recalculate child support.

Hello. No, there's no specific law that addresses how old a child has to be before it can spend the night with the other parent. Thank you for the question.

Hello. No, it will not be legal unless and until it is a court order. Otherwise, you are at his mercy of when and how much he decides to pay. Contact DHR or hire an attorney to file for CS. Thanks for your question.

Typically the documents are filed all at one time.

Hello. You can file for a modification. You should seek local counsel for advice. Thanks for your question.

Hello. Yes, other people are feeding, housing, and clothing your children. You are still financially responsible and they can obtain child support from you and the father.

You can pay the minimum amount, but the interest will accumulate and you will owe much more than $3,000.00. Don't... View More

Hello. Your daughter is still a minor and whatever the current order states, that is what you will need to follow. The father is financially responsible for his child, not your child (daughter). Thank you for the question.

Hello. He's not required to pay without a court order. Sounds like you don't have one yet. Just stop pursuing it. Yes, you still have the option to do so in the future if you maintain custody. Thanks for your question.

Hello. It's impossible to tell you exactly without looking at your case. However, it sounds like you did not pay through the state; therefore, no records exist of your paying support. Thank you for your question.

Hello. Unless she is disabled and unable to care for herself, then it terminates on her 19th birthday. Any money received by the custodial parent after that date is subject to claw back, should the non-custodial parent decide to legally pursue it. Thank you for the question.

Hello, uncontested means child support will be addressed in your agreement. The Court will make whatever your agreement is the Final Order. So, no, unless you both agree. You will still need to complete the child support calculation forms so they can be filed on record. Best wishes.
