Question:
I have a close friend who has custody of his daughter and his exwife has not paid child support in three years. He has tried to go through the State of GA to recover this money but has not been able to do so. This is in part due to the fact that the State of GA seems to want to chase down "deadbeat dads" as the posters in the office indicate but mothers that do not pay child support are not worth chasing after. He has tried a private recovery service but with no luck. Who can he call? His little girl wants to take ballet classes and he can not afford to clothe and feed her as well as the after school activities that she wants to particpate in. What can he do? Please let me know so that I can pass this information along to him.
Answer:
I am not licensed in GA at this time and therefore cannot answer your question specifically to the laws of that State. If the enforecement agency cannot or will not help he would need to file a Motion for Contempt against the wife. This action would be filed in the court that entered the dissolution.
