My childrens father has not seen them or paid child support in over three years, support was finnally ordered september of '04 and we go back to court april 28th for contempt of court because he has still not paid anything.

How long does he have to go on before I can file to have all of his rights taken from him concerning the children.

We were never married but lived together off and on for 7 years and he has been established as the father by court ordered paternity test.
