Heck I don't know if I even have the right "Yahoo" catagory- but anyway maybe someone could direct me in the right direction. Our Godson came out to visit early spring and now his deadbeat parents dont want him back (and he doesn't want to go back-which I dont blame him).
His dad is a convicted sexual predator and his mother is pretty much worthless (they are divorced). His dad pays child support to his mother (which we never see).
Well now that he doesn't want to go back, I want the support the to feed this teenager that eats like a horse. Problem is we live in California and his "parents" live in another state.
Anybody know if its within our rights to go after the child support? We even put him in school out here!

I'm not sure about California laws...you need an attorney. It sounds like abandonment to me

This matter would need to go through the courts. Find an attorney. Child support orders cannot be changed without court approval.

You have no legal standing whatsoever. In fact, if you persist in this, the mother has every right to file kidnapping charges against you for not sending the minor back.
I would STRONLY suggest you ask the mother to establish a guardianship agreement between the two of you before you pursue this any further.
