how to i get court records of a step parent adoption in n.c.

NC family court should have the adoption papers. You can also subpoena them during the court pre trial on unpaid child support. You can also subpoena the stepfather for his testimony. Get an attorney for your defense. Unpaid child support for 14 years is a serious amount of money. On the other hand there is laches, meaning she did not exercise her legal right for several years.
