text: If he had a court order to pay support he still owes it to you. It's going to be very hard for him to get support from him. You have to make A LOT more money than he does for that to happen. I would get an attorney.. and discuss it with him.. The support covers the expenses that were involved when you had custody. I would not give him child support...let him know how it feels. If you go to court, more than likely the judge if he wants you to pay (and that's doubtful) will offset your support with what he owes you..Which means if you are ordered to pay 1,000.00 per month, you would not owe for 10 months..However, talking to an attorney would be your best bet...HE STILL owes you back support and unless you are making more than him, chances are he won't get support. Good luck
