then leave for another woman and doesn't pay anything at all, will the letter stand up in a child support hearing?

he was giving me cash in my bank account and he actually has (since leaving ) received a raise which brought his salary to $3200/ bi-weekly

Oh, hell to the yes!
If he is the biological father, he had better hope he HAS a copy of that letter or he could end up having to pay more in arrears once child support is granted at the hearing.

He has to have your sig on the notarized statement,however since hes left for another woman you can prove he hasnt been making any payments with your bank statements and yet hes gotten a raise Im so sorry for him because when you two do go to court for child support he will wish he had kept the agreement he had with you because the judge isnt going to be happy when he or she finds out he started supporting his child ,got a raise left you for another woman and the support just stopped I think his new woman had better talk to him about paying back support as well as current support before dcss does.

Yes it should because the notarized statement is acknowledging that he believes himself to be the father and in being so he is responsible for child support.
It would be in his best interest to keep the arrangements because what he is paying might be less than what the court will impose on him plus he will most likely have to pay back pay.
If paternity wasn't established and she is sure he is the father, I suggest it will be in her best interest to establish paternity which they will do at a child support hearing if paternity is in question and from there, they will impose a child support order which can be placed in a wage garnishment to secure payments on time.
Now since his support has ended as a result of him leaving for another woman the wage garnishment would be my preference because taking care of your child needs shouldn't be based on another woman in the picture and if I was the other woman, I wouldn't want a guy who didn't take care of his responsibility because he wouldn't be of the moral character I would find worth dating.
But again, the notarized statement and proof he is the father or has acknowledged himself to be like a birth certificate should hold up in court.

you can show the court that he was paying but that amount may not be what you get the court goes by this thing called a disometer they calculate his income and yours to determine what should be paid. I know because I am going through child support issues with my husbands ex wife. She is bitter because we just had a baby and is trying to take us for everything we own. PLEASE dont be that woman, I know you are angry and I can tell in your question that there is some bitternes, drop that before you go to court or they will have bias on you from the beginning.

He would have to provide proof showing how much he pay per month. Like a receipt or something... If he signed the birth certificate then paternity does not have to be established go thought the Friend of the Court they will Make sure that he pays..

With or without the letter, the court will order the father to pay support. He will want to prove he paid in the past so he doesn't get stuck paying more.

If he has paid it consistently, it will determine his ability to pay. However, a good argument on his part would be that circumstances have changed since then, or that he was unduly influenced to write it. The amount has to be within statute requirements.

If he has actually paid money for the child and it can be proven, he can be taken to court to continue making him pay. It will not be the full amount, you have to establish paternity for that.
