Q: Child support
I have not gotten my child support this month at all, and the Child Support Division says his place of work has not sent them any payments for this month at all. My son is almost 17 yrs old. I was told he could have quit his job or went to work for a new employer. How am I supposed to find out what is going on? When he did not get what he wanted in our child custody case, he stopped all contact with me and my son. I have attempted to email him with no response, defying the court order to respond to each other.
A:
I'd start by calling his employer and ask them if he still works there.
If they're not willing to talk to you, you can subpoena them and ask them to provide the other parent's dates of employment and recent pay stubs.
