§ 4611 Child Support Payment Presumptions

• •If you don't pay child support, the court will assume you did it on purpose and could afford it.
• •It's your job to prove you didn't mean to skip payments and that you really couldn't pay.
• •If you can't prove these two things, you might get in trouble.

A dad loses his job and stops paying child support for 3 months without telling anyone.

The court will think he stopped paying on purpose and that he had the money. He has to show proof he lost his job and had no income to pay.
