Felony Non-Support

The Prosecutor’s Office prosecutes those who are required to financially support their child but who fail to do so, according to law, in criminal court.

Goal
The goal of these cases is to enforce child support orders and help ensure a child is being financially supported, and if the person who has the obligation to provide this financial support fails to do so, ensure that justice is served according to law. To reach this goal, the Prosecutor’s Office works with the Friend of the Court (FOC), law enforcement, family, the District Court Judges, and the Circuit Court Judges.
