Yes, but certain stipulations apply. The parent failing to pay may be subject to fines, wage garnishment, liens on home or businesses, and/or the suspension of a driver’s license prior to jail time. Before a delinquent party is penalized, the court will schedule a support hearing to determine the reasoning behind the missed payment(s). Parties who are fully able to make the payments will be ordered to pay and may be further penalized with the above consequences.
