If child support is not paid the child support agency may approach a court to bring an action known as judicial enforcement against the offending party. The child support agency can file charges of criminal non support or civil contempt of court after this stage is reached. Legislations that have been recently enacted give the child support agency the right to opt for the option of an administrative enforcement. The procedure of going through court can result in a fine or a jail term being imposed on the offending party; whereas, an administrative enforcement can have a child support lien being placed on the property of the defaulting party. It is always advisable to contact the child support agency as soon as possible in case your circumstances have changed and payment is proving difficult.
