I have a friend who has made some rather bad choices in life that he is now trying to set straight. He lives in PA, but he originated in Oregon. He has a daughter in Oregon for whom approx 4k in back child support is long over due.
He is actively seeking work but having a hard time finding assignments, however he is making a serious effort (later than he should have...the threat of court action got him moving).
He is being told that even though he's getting occasional work and seeking full time employment so that he can make good, he's still got a good chance of going to jail.
Question: 4k seems a very small amount. I have a friend in IN who's wife's ex was 5k behind and they couldn't even get a tax judgment. Is this relatively small amount typical for PA to take such aggressive action?
Question: His PD is not well versed in CS law. What else can he do to help his case to stay out of prison so that he CAN get a job? He's already in counseling, on anti-depressants, and like I said, interviewing a lot, although he's being somewhat boneheaded - he resists applying for *ANY* work - he's being too selective IMO seeking only office work....
