My question involves child support in the State of: Tennessee
Once upon a time, a judge calculated my X CS arrearages and added them into the payment order for him to get caught up while he was deployed.
He did not make all the payments as ordered.
When he came back, we went back to court for a modification and the judge found there was not a significant variance, so child support was not modified. However, the judge asked if the arrearages from previous order were paid so a new order could be entered for the regular payment amount. I did not have the math to calculate, but agreed to consider them paid in full. The entered order is a form that has a handwritten note which reads
"The Father wishes to non-select his petition. The parties agreed that the Father has paid his arrears in full"
I'm not sure about the non-select part... meaning it is not very legible.
When I finally did calculate where the balance was at that time, he was actually still behind by quite a bit. I'm wondering if this constitutes an actual waive of child support obligated, or if there is any grey area. By the way, for those playing along at home.. he says his job starting taking support out of his checks, but I still have yet to see that, so even with this "forgiven amount" he is behind by three months of support at the current amount.

Support Arrears: Does That Constitute Legal Waive of Child Support
