|  |     Chances, are cooling down hell to snow.:) He is better off trying to
    get custody of his daughter. And nurturing her himself. There is an age
    in which children can choose the non custodial parent to live with if
    they wish. 
    
    I would certainly start gathering all the cancled checks ASAP if the
    state of New Hampshire steps in. He too could be looking at the Gray
    Bar Motel as a future place of residence.
    
    Because she is a minor, her mother is the parential guardian of this
    child and is entitled to all monies. 
    
    And if the mother is living with a boyfriend and children I would
    gamble that the ex is not telling the truth of who is living in the
    house hold and maybe, just maybe. The welfare office would like to know
    who is living in the house. Doing this and documenting fraud, if it is
    fraud, can protect himself if there is other little dho-dha's that
    arise. And if no one does anything about it and it is fraud. Sometimes
    local media loves to wash the laundry of fraud's.

| 248.2 | They can't make him pay | CSLALL::GWILSON |  | Wed Feb 17 1993 14:44 | 11 |

  The State of NH normally cannot make your friend pay them
directly unless there has been adjudged arrearage.  I am
unsure how her being on AFDC affects this.  Have him go to
the local law library and look up Hahn v. Hahn.  It's a
recent (last couple of years) NH Superior Court case.  Sorry
I don't have the exact reference handy.
Regards,
Gary

    re .2
    If a CP goes on welfare, the State usually goes after the "support"
    check...and keeps it to offset the welfare payment.  the "AFDC" goes
    directly to the CP, the state keeps the "support".  
    I agree with George.  Both father and daughter are up the creek. 
    At her age, if she is willing, it will be easier to get custody
    changed.  
    Is it legal to collect AFDC in NH if she is living with this boyfriend?
    Some states it is.  Many it is not.  She could be in for a round in
    George's Greybar Hotel for fraud.
    One more point,  if he gives any money directly to his daughter, that
    is considered a _gift_ and cannot be deducted from the "support"
    payment, but...in most states the CP has to count that as income and
    it will be deducted from the amount of "AFDC" she can collect.  Check
    it out with a lawyer before doing anything like that.

|  |     Based upon Freds last line as in gifts.... I think if I were your
    friend there would be an ol saying from Mad Max And the Thunder Dome.
    "Two men walk in, one man walks out...." And that is based upon the
    thoughts if the money given to the child is considered a gift.... Then
    your pal is well behind in child suport and there is a good chance that
    he is on his way to the Gray Bar Motel. So, I would certainly find out
    that she is doing or not doing fraud and zip her first before he gets
    zapped! :) Or have it as a card if she does push jail for non payment
    of child support.;)
    
    And there will be tuffer standards for child support! Just replay you
    video from last nights 'State of the Union' featuring your very best
    prez.:) 
    
    I hear that train a comin
    comin down the track 
    I'm here if Folsom Prision
    and life keeps drag en on.....;)
