Q: kids are 19, 20 and 21 can I file a civil suit for unpaid support? I’ve never received his taxes due to him not filing.
He owns a business but didn’t put in his name. He owns vehicles but tells the court he doesn’t to either question when asked. How can he get away with owing over 60,000 in support. Can a civil suit be filed?
A: If you have a child support order, you don't need to file a new suit; collect the CS order. If you have proof that he owns the business and vehicles, and he lied about it under oath, he can be prosecuted for perjury, and you can perhaps, once you prove it, get a writ of attachment.
A: Check with the Department of Children and Falilies to enforce the order.
