What is the name of your state? California
The court ordered my dad to pay $400/mo CS to my mom from about ’74 to ’88. He never paid. My mom knew where my dad lived, but didn’t try to collect because he was a drug addict and broke. The total he should have paid is ~$65k.
My dad has recently inherited money. I saw from seniorjudges link that there is no statute of limitations in Calif, but I wonder if my dad can use a “laches defense”? Could she wait until he passes away and then try to collect from his estate?
