What is the name of your state? Maryland
I know I will probably be bashed by a few of the fellow posters, but sometimes you have to do what you have to do.
I have been on public assistance since 06/2005 due to a car accident that fractured my neck while I was 6 months pregnant. The baby was born 08/08. After I was well enough I decided to go to school because before the accident I wasn't having any luck finding a decent paying job to support myself and my children. I am graduating from my 7 month progam in May. I filed for child support for my youngest son 2 weeks after his birth. It is an interstate child support case. I'm wondering how the state will do my child support with the father owing money for the time that I am on public assistance. I'm hoping that I will be off of the system no later than June.
My questions are:
How long will it take for me to get a court hearing?
Who will have jurisdiction My state or the NCP's state?
Will get their money back first and then give me my son's money once they are paid?
OR
Will they just take the back support and give me the ongoing support once the order is in place?
Thank you in advance for your LEGAL advice!
