What is the name of your state? Alabama
I had a child out of wedlock in Alabama in 1988, her father established paternity but the court we used stated child support/visitation was done in another court and that if we were amicable we should just do it ourselves, which we did. He has been convicted of a crime and sentenced to 8-10 years and began serving 2 years ago. I have not received child support since that time. I am wondering if there is any law that covers this type of situation, i.e. obtaing some type of child support while he is in prison or obtaining some type of order that would ask for "payback" of child support once he is released from prison and working? This has affected my daughter tremendously as she was used to being able to do the things and buy the things that child support enabled and now I have to tell her no a lot.
