As promised I am following up to let you knwo how I made up with my child support termination request. Please see original thread here:

for details, I am not going to re-wite it all.


First I would like to thank all who helped and directed me originally, I very much appreciate you taking the time for me. Second, I am hoping to inform others who may be in a similar situation as myself on how to accomplish this without costing them a dime.

As my order was out of NY, but my son and his mom lived in Florida and I live in NH I could not find a lawyer to help me. However, one attorney referred me to the NH Child Support office. They have an interstate division there and once they heard my situations (son in adult prison) they were able to help me through the process, i.e. child support modification/termination. Anway I went to court this past Monday (I appeared via telephone) and the NY order was registeded in Florida. After that it took the judge no time at all to declare my son emancipated and terminate the child support order. In addition, his mom owes me almost $1,000, as it was retro back to the filing date. The judge was NOT happy that she did not voluntary vacate this order and wasted the courts time on this. I could hear her freaking out about the judgement in the background too.

I know I will never see the money the judge says she owes me; however, at least I do not have to deal with this anylonger! What a pay increase I just got !

Although I am no lawyer, or expert, based on my experiences I advise anyone who wishes to modify an out of state child support order to check in with your state child support office for assistance. Their interstate division may be able to help you, as they helped me. And they charge no fee. It takes awhile, but it is well worth it!

Thanks again all!
