Summary
To modify child support in Texas due to incarceration, file a petition with the court and provide proof of incarceration and financial status. If the custodial parent lost custody, you might argue for modification or reimbursement. Child support doesnt stop automatically during incarceration; a modification request is necessary. If not notified of custody changes, you may challenge the arrangement. Withholding visitation due to unpaid child support is illegal; file a motion to enforce rights. Suing for pain and suffering is complex. Check custody status with the family court where your child resides.Full Conversation
