How does the physical custodian of minor children get court ordered child support from the non-custodial parent?
Every child has the right to support from both parents – it does not matter whether the parents are divorced, separated or were never married. Each parent has a legal obligation to provide for the maintenance, health care, education and support of their minor children (for purposes of child support, generally a child is considered to be a minor until he or she reaches 18 years of age).
