If you are issued an order in a Florida court to pay child support, the adherence to this order isn’t voluntary. If you make the decision to avoid paying this support, you are doing so at a great level of personal risk.
In fact, Florida law has several enforcements in place that penalize parents who don’t pay child support, which can range from monetary fines to time behind bars. Since going to jail is the most severe consequence related to not paying child support, noncustodial parents in Florida are advised to get to know the child support enforcement methods used in the state.
