Given the facts of your question with respect to non-payment of child support by your child's father, you need to consult with a family law attorney or your local legal aid clinic about filing a petition with the court for an order to show cause for contempt of a court order against the father for the non-payment of the support to be filed in the county court house where the existing order for support lies.

Laws may vary from state to state, and sometimes change. Tiny variations in the facts, or a fact not set forth in a question, often can change a legal outcome or an attorney's conclusion. Although AttorneyPages.com has verified the attorney was admitted to practice law in at least one jurisdiction, he or she may not be authorized to practice law in the jurisdiction referred to in the question, nor is he or she necessarily experienced in the area of the law involved.
