    Default Father is in Prison, Does He Still Owe Child Support

    My question is when he gets out, is he responsible for all the back child support he owes? He did not pay pryer to being incarcerated either - he is in jail for child molestation in the state of Texas.

    Yeap - neither the obligation nor the arrears go away while he's incarcerated unless a court orders it that way.

    Is there anything I need to do in the mean time or do I just wait till he is released?
