Criminal Non-support

Question: Who knows what the sentence would be for a felony for criminal non-support payments in Wisconsin?

Answer: Nobody does, because sentencing issues are generally dealt with on a case-by-case basis with many different factors taken into consideration by the sentencing authority. Now, if you want to know what the law allows for, perhaps someone here familiar with Wisconsin law will be able to tell you. Even then, because people on this site are notorious for spouting off without knowing what the heck they're talking about, you should only accept those answers that can quote a reliable source. In this particular case, the only reliable source I'd accept would be the text of the actual law that provides for the sentence of the crime you're asking about. Even then, it's quite likely the sentencing authority will have some discretion as to what's imposed.

Question: Was I wrong for filing 'Criminal Non Support' charges against my ex..?? I feel bad....? I have two kids by my ex. When we seperated, he was fully aware that I had absolutely NO source of income, aside from a little child support I received for one of my oldest sons from a previous relationship. Yes he was a great dad, and he would give me money here and there when he had it, but I needed money every single month, and because our kids were young, I could not work, and he would not keep them when he wasn't working. I had no babysitter or daycare available to me....so I filed for child support . but he still didn't pay consistantly, however he did pay sometimes when he could. there were alot times I got no child support from him ! and eventually I had to file criminal non support charges... so now he has a felony on his record and is mad at me, and says he will now have a harder time finding a job... I do feel bad about this, but when I filed the charges I felt deperate, because I had no money, and no child care. but I didn't want to ruin his life either... Was I wrong ? nml, dont you get it ? I had no family support system, in other words, the family we had which consisted of my 60 year old mother and his 70 year old mother was not into babsitting Oh were doing good now, I filed charges 2 years ago

Answer: I don't think you were wrong at all! actually i think you did a great thing. Think about yourself and your kids. Its not fair to your kids to see there mom upset because she's having such a hard time getting by. You take care of the kids, so he should have to work 2 jobs just to make the payments. Thats what happens when you become a parent, putting yourself on hold for the kids. Just hold your head up and be proud of yourself, you did a good thing.

Question: Can I file a police report of criminal non-support in Texas? My son's dead beat dad refuses to pay child support. He sends nasty evil text saying he doesnt care he is not going to jail ...pretty much he thinks he is above the law. He hasnt paid child support in over 4 months and is currently in arears over 4 thousand dollars. The AttorneyGeneral hasnt really been much help, which is very frustrating. I heard of one lady who filed a police report for Criminal Non-Support. Is it possible to do this? I live in the state of Texas. Any info would be helpful!! Thanks

Answer: As the prosecutor's office in your jurisdiction. If there is a law in the criminal code on this, they would be the enforcing office, not the attoryney general. Good luck.

Question: Can a parent incarcerated for criminal non-support ask for child support modification? I am in Wisconsin. My ex is in a work- release jail for non-support. He is requesting that his child support be reduced by more than 50% due to a change in circumstances. I have researched cases such as Rottscheit v. Dumler. I do not know how to cite a case in court. Can any one tell me how? What do I do. I can not afford an attorney as he is over $100,000. in arrears. I sure would appreciate some help!!!!!!!!!!11

Answer: You need a lawyer. I suspect you probably qualify for a legal aid lawyer but if not, you could contact a low cost law clinic. You didn't say exactly where you are in Wisconsin you were so this is the best that I could do. http://www.lasmilwaukee.com/ http://www.womenslaw.org/gethelp_state_t… If neither of them can help you, they should know who can. Good luck...and don't let him get away with it. He is in work-release jail because he refuses to pay child support so I see no reason why he should be rewarded with less support to pay based upon his own bad actions!

Question: Would you men/women be angry about the custodial parent filing 'criminal non-support charges? Even if you are fully aware the other parent has no income and can't finacially support the child(s) and you are not working or paying child support. but you do have a good relationship with the kids. Do you see this as morally wrong

Answer: It doesnt matter if morally wrong or not, but non payment of court ordered child support is illegal and can be punished by the courts. Child support itself doesnt always agree its going to the right parent for even the right reason, but the court appointed the custodial parent as being the best (usually the mother) in the interest of the children. Not allparties agree that this is the right choice but it is the option of the judge and is binding as is child support. Now child support and custody are two things that can be modified in a court of law after the final divorce decree so you have an option if needbe

Question: Criminal Non-Support in Missouri? My x owes me about 15,000 in child support. We are going to court in a few days. What can they do? I have a letter where he admits that he chose to stay home and do drugs that his family provided instead of getting a job (which proves that he voluntarily did not pay his child support or for medical coverage/daycare etc that he was ordered to pay). He had absconded from his parole on domestic assault & drug distribution/manufacture for over a year. I have no qualms about using the letter, except that his family are all crazy and I have already had my brakes cut two weeks ago when he was informed of the court date, but nothing could be done because I couldn't prove who did it. Are there any options for punishment that I can suggest besides the judge slapping him on the wrist and letting him go on not paying? He lost his license years ago for nonsupport, and everything he has is in his dad's name. I think I'm screwed. He won't work, partly because he is lazy, a druggie, and because Daddy says he doesn't have to and continuously supplies his drugs. He just doesn't want to pay it, and wants to make me out to be the bad guy. He has never excersised his visitation rights. The one time we ran into him around town, we walked in a restaraunt and he was there with his dad. They got up in the middle of their meal and left.

Answer: You don't get the option of deciding his punishement, that's what the judge is for. The most they can do is garnish his wages or take his tax refunds.

Question: Felony pb n 2states for non-support, felony assault 2nd degre by alford plea get 6 field violation reports. ?? probation ends in feb 2009 violation hearing is 8/25/08 What can happen?The judge is requesting to hear all violations on 8/25. He took alford plea on the assault and then committed several probation violations plus done over 4 mo in jail while on pb does that mean he will get time.His atty is a public defender.He has been in trouble for over 11 yrs every yr he has gotn n trouble like dwi ,assault on two other girls besides me as well as driving w/no liscense posess drug pari etc.....Felony non support over and over.Can he get a way with his criminal behavior?

Answer: He will either have his probation modified or revoked. It sounds like he has a drug/alcohol problem. If he is lucky the judge will throw him in rehab as a condition of his probation, but if the judge thinks he is a lost cause, then he is going to jail/prison. No judge is just going to look the other way.

Question: Perjury in Court and Warrant for Non-Support of Minor Questions, Please Help!? I have a son with my ex bf. I just went to court about a wk ago for visitation he requested. I just agreed with the visitation and worked out an agreement with that to present to the judge at the pre-trial. I really don't think he is a fit parent and he has a criminal record and other reasons-but that's all another story. Anyways, the judge told us that parenting was a privledge and it's my responsibility to follow thru with visitation and his to pay and then the judge proceeded to ask my ex if he pays support and he nodded his head yes. I didn't say anything as I did not want to lose my temper or cause an argument and look bad in court and figured I would bring it up later to the judge in private. My ex is 29, lives at home with his mother and is unemployed. I got $590 in Dec. of last yr and some money went to the state from his taxes but other than that I haven't seen a penny and my son is gonna be 3 next month. My friend who's a cop told me to go to the jail to get a warrant for his arrest for non-support. (He'll be $2800 behind next month). He is supposed to be held in contempt soon and the county my CS is in says they mailed the contempt letter out but I think they are blowing me off. My friend also told me to try to file for perjury as he lied to the judge about paying support probably to make me look bad for "denying him visits" as he "pays", ya sure. I live in Ohio, could I get him for perjury? I want to get a copy of his payment history for CS and bring it to the judge and could I get the warrant for non-support too? What are my rights concerning this issue? Thanks so much! I don't have enough money for an attorney and I just didn't want things to get heated by countering him. I want to fax or bring the payment history up to the court for them to give to the judge and then the judge can decide to put contempt in sooner (my support order is in the last county I lived in) Plus I meant he probably wants to make me look bad or said that to try to get me mad to make me go off on him in court. What action can I take now for support and the lying to the judge about regular support?

Answer: I can't even to begin to understand this ; why are you in court without an attorney? You cannot "talk to the judge in private". That is not allowed ( called ex parte communications). It doesn't make you "look bad" to tell the truth in court. If he wasn't paying you should have said so, and come to court with those records. You don't file for perjury, that is up to the judge, it is his/her courtroom , not yours. But the judge will never know, because you didn't counter with the truth. He has paid some support (even involuntarily), so he didn't actually lie; it was on you to present the court with the records. Your rights are the rights of due process, which you had in the courtroom that day. You can't bring anything to the judge; you have to present the documents into evidence in the courtroom or file the documents with the clerk of the court before your hearing. The DA/states/county attorney in charge of child support enforcement and recovery will bring the action of past due child support through a "show cause" warrant; which means your ex has to come to court and explain (show cause why, he is in contempt) why he has not paid. The court will then take the action advocated by the CS attorney.

Question: Back Child Support - who really wins? Divorced in 1975, tried to collect in Family Court, Criminal prosecution, criminal non-support probation until revoked, settled for a judgement through Attorney Generals Office, they failed to renew Judgement, lapsed 2 years, negligence on AG's part, ex refuses to pay $98,000 as agreed 12 yrs ago and as a result he has beat the system for 31 years. So if he doesn't owe it - does the AG's office owe it?

Answer: There's a reason its called the "Criminal Justice" System.

Question: Is unemployment a defense against non support of a dependent child? In the state of Indiana, my 19 year old son was arrested on a warrant charging him with "IC 35-46-1-5 Nonsupport of a dependent child" (his 20 month old child born out of wedlock and it hasn't even been a whole year since it was determined he was the father and the support order was issued). This is a Class D Felony. The relevant portions of the statute he is charged with are: (a) A person who knowingly or intentionally fails to provide support to the person's dependent child commits nonsupport of a child, a Class D felony. (d) It is a defense that the accused person was unable to provide support. He is unemployed and his only work history to date was working on commission selling Cutco Knives (Vector Marketing). He has been making support payments whenever possible in spite of being unemployed. The one check he received from Vector Marketing was signed over to the child support people. He routinely takes his son outside of regular parenting time schedules so the child’s mother can attend school or work without having to pay for child care. He has not been arraigned, so I have no information as to any details surrounding the charge. There aren't any issues between him and the mother, they get along fine. On the surface, it seems more an issue between him and the Prosecuting Attorney's Child Support Caseworker. He will be entitled to a public defender, but in our county, all they are interested in are plea bargains and he does not need a felony conviction. He has no assets and does not do any work "off the books". I am at a loss as to why they are going this route and am really dumbfounded by the whole thing. I would have thought a civil contempt remedy would be tried long before a criminal remedy would be sought. This is not a deadbeat dad case. This is a young adult who loves his son, in tough times, doing everything he can. Any insight would be welcome.

Answer: I assume that there was a Court Order directing him to pay a specific amount monthly. This is important. You do not just decide that it is not possible for you to comply and just quit paying the total amount on time and in the manner ordered. If there was a "significant change in circumstances" subsequent to the issuance of the Court Order, he should have petitioned the Court for a hearing at which the Court could review the situation and reduce the amount owed. "Significant change in circumstances" is generally considered to be a pay reduction of 20% or more. The Court, however, is allowed to decide that the defendant COULD make more money if he truly wanted to do so. And that is most likely what would happen in this case. When you have a Court Order, you do what the judge told you to do or you go to jail for contempt. Death would probably be accepted as a defense. Anything else is doubtful.

Question: My son's dad hasn't seen him in almost 2 years.? I have asked him time and time again to see his child and his famous line is "thanks, but no thanks" He is NOT on the birth certificate and my son has MY last name. This man also has another child that he never sees and has actually signed over his rights. I have asked him to sign over his rights to me but he won't. The last time he saw my son he ended up hitting me. He has been in jail and prison many times for drugs, criminal non support, any many other various crimes. My question is, I am getting married in 6 months and my fiance wants to adopt my son. First of all, How do we go about doing that? Is there ANYTHING the bio dad can do? What are his rights? Because it's been so long is it abandoment?

Answer: Apparently he's exercising his right to abort without actually killing the child. Are you anti equal rights? \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

I wish someone could tell me!!!! He was also supposedlly sexually abused one time by a relative when he was young. very sad.

Answer: I am a A-Level Psychology student- so FAR from qualified, but this is my opinion- I don't think he is a Sociopath at all, he was probably insecurely attached as a young child and therefore its had an impact on his later life, this is probably why he cannot make any kind of long-term attachments to anyone he knows/loves. I would stop worrying about him and his parasitic nature, leave him to get on with his life, he isn't getting anywhere and by the sounds of things, unfortunately, he won't ever have the money for child support or the Lawyers fee's. I would leave him to it. Focus on your daughter, make sure she is bought up in loving household with you, tell her about her father then when she's 18, if she wants to, she can go and find her father, don't stop her though, however painful it may seem and be, it will be important for her, if it does go wrong, be there for her. I wish you all my luck :)

I wish someone could tell me!!!! 1 second ago No one left me for a younger woman?!?! He left my DAUGHTER 6 years ago. I don't CARE who he is with He has always been with someone! I am MORE stable considering I have taken care of his kid for the past 6 years alone and I am VERY PROUD to have done so. I am venting on here. It's what it's for. No one is jelous, but u seem to have serious mommy issues or some other strange problem involving something completley unrelated ,considering you are answering my question with some unrelated answer. I have NEVER kept her from him. He chose to not have any financial nor any other sort of responsibility. . all of this "crap" I typed is true. The abusiveness and name calling is not allowed on this site and you have already been reported by three people so far kiddos. I have NEVER said anything to my daughter about her father as he abandoned her 6 years ago and it is very damaging to a child to talk about their deadbeat in front of them, so I say nothing. She knows the truth. He's not here and never has been. That is his fault. His feelings towards me is a SEPERATE issue. You do not know me nor him nor the story, so give constructive advice instead of bashing and abusing people because of immaturity and self esteem issues.

Question: Unfair license suspension!!? I had my drivers license suspended because of non payment of child support. My ex husband was ordered by a judge to pay child support. I had custody of the children. He NEVER paid any support. EVER! I had to get help from the state of California. Now, they want ALL monetary aid paid back. With an ungodly amount of interest. The ex is no where to be found. So, the state of California is coming after me. They revoked my drivers license. Which, by the way, has CAUSED me to lose favorable employment. I am a phlebotomist. I am NOT a "deadbeat" parent. Which is a term that is highly over used and just does not apply in a lot of cases. The very idea of taking drivers license to get child support is ludicrous! California jails are full of people that are jailed for non-support. Some of them may be bad parents. But, not criminals. That is almost like debtors prison. And I can tell you, I have been treated like "dirt" by people behind the counter at some of these county agencies. Suggestions?

Answer: try talking to your social worker mabye she can help you by cutting out some of the payments or devise a payment play for you to pay it back.. but if you got aid fromt the state i dont understand why they would want it back.. its not like you took out a lone from the bank

Question: Criminal Non-Support in Missouri? My x owes me about 15,000 in child support. We are going to court in a few days. What can they do? I have a letter where he admits that he chose to stay home and do drugs that his family provided instead of getting a job (which proves that he voluntarily did not pay his child support or for medical coverage/daycare etc that he was ordered to pay). He had absconded from his parole on domestic assault & drug distribution/manufacture for over a year. I have no qualms about using the letter, except that his family are all crazy and I have already had my brakes cut two weeks ago when he was informed of the court date, but nothing could be done because I couldn't prove who did it. Are there any options for punishment that I can suggest besides the judge slapping him on the wrist and letting him go on not paying? He likes prison, manages to go at least once a year... and these idiots just keep letting him right back out! I know he's going to use the excuse of his father was sick, but in the letter I have he admits the reason. Another sucky thing, my father & stepmother are on his side! They say that I'm keeping the kid from him when he has never once called, or bothered to show up to court or anything. I even called him after court to tell him that he had visitation, but he's never bothered with that because he knew if he showed up high that I would grab the kid & leave. They (dad & stepmom) seem to think its ok that he be stoned out of his gourd during visitation!!!

Answer: He will go to jail.
