Visit your local family court and ask how to get your claim started. You can request a paternity test to confirm his paternity and then the court can establish a support order. There should be an advocate available at the court who can explain the process for you and help you file the necessary forms. Once his paternity has been established he cannot avoid his obligation to support his child. Keep in mind that the father can also request a visitation order once his paternity has been established.

An ex husband, if a support order exists, can be turned over to the support enforcement department in your state. It is their job to collect.

Can you be sued for back support after a child turns 19 if you paid the court order child support at the time it was ordered. I was never late. Just afraid she will try to extend her child support.?
How can you be responsible for arrearages when you say you paid as ordered? . In most states, child turning 19 or graduate from high school whichever occurs first should exhaust. You could to feel better, go petition the courts that ordered the support and have the order terminated. I guess the judge can only go by what the petitioner is requesting. However; the custodial parent can petition the courts for future support depending on the state and the situation. example: college support. In most states when the legal age is 19 or graduated from high school it would be up to the courts to decide for other support other than child support. This would be totally up to the judge. We certainly can not speak for the judge. Work with each other don't get wrapped up in the system. I believe mostly child support can be resolve between the parents. If not then courts can get involved. Support your kids thru college if this is the situation takes two to tango. And it also could be a special situation too. good luck
