If there is a Florida court decision for child support and the obligated parent moves out of state... Is the parent still obligated to pay child support once having left Florida?

Yes. There is no federal law regarding child support so states honor each other's orders regarding child support. If you fail to make payments, Florida will show you as deliquent on child support. The state where you have moved will honor a request for a judgment against you or garnish your wages to pay the support obligations. You must continue to pay your obligations to the Florida court.
