I keep getting denied jobs because child support is a felony, how can this be changed.

Child support is NOT a felony. Not PAYING your child support may very well be. The most obvious solution is to pay your child support.

Failure to support your child is a felony. Having a child support order is not a felony.

Really...You had to neglect your support obligation for quite some time to have been convicted of this crime. Shame on you.

No, you are turned down for employement for having a felony conviction for failure to pay your child support.

Which means that you have willfully and consistently avoided paying your support. Because, in order for failure to pay to reach a felony level you have to be racking up the past due support to the tune of over $5000.... ...(though that amount might vary in some states.)

Perhaps Mr Cross is too busy trying to find "casual safe sex" partners, to bother feeding his child/ren.:rolleyes:

If OP moves to Nevada, he might be able to combine his wish for casual safe sex with paying his child support.

OP... just so you know.

BP is SOOOOOO 1990's. No one actually goes on there anymore.... It's kind of like wearing velour track suits.
