Is this possible??? what can he do??? my friend said that the wife even got an increase in child support n didnt notify the judge of the adoption(he wasnt at the hearing because he lived in a dif. state at the time)

Once the parental termination is ordered, there is no more child support.

However, the back child support does not go away and must still be paid.

The father needs to contact DOR CSE and send them CERTIFIED copies of the court orders terminating his parental rights and the adoption order. If he does this they will stop all on-going CS. However, if he owes arrears he'll have to pay those off.
