Q: Cancel out my ex-husband's child support so he no longer has to pay
My son is almost 15 and his dad and I get along very well. Is there a way I can cancel out his child support to the attorney general so he no longer has to pay anymore? Or do I have to go through my attorney to do that? we have been divorced now for 8 years. Thank you
A: You could ask the Office of the Attorney General to create on Order Terminating Child Support and an Order Terminating Income Withholding. If the OAG does not do it for you, however, y'all will probably have to get an attorney to draft them for you.
