Good question. However, attorneys are supposed to be providing answers. The answer is that a child support order continues in full force and effect unless and until it is terminated by operation of law or by court order. Retroactive modifications of support (for any reason) are strictly barred by statute. The intent is to get support to the custodial parent or party, but his must be done by court order or administrative change of payee through DCSS.
