If you have been threatened, you can call your local police department and file a report.
It also can force a parent to make difficult decisions about child support.
If you have left home and have to go back to retrieve clothes or belongings, you may ask the police to accompany you.
You can apply to participate in the Address Confidentiality Program. It helps participants keep their home, work and/or school address secret by providing a substitute mailing address.
If you receive public assistance, you can get permission not to help collect child support. Generally, when you receive public assistance (either a cash grant or medical), the Division of Child Support opens a child support enforcement case and you are expected to help us establish and/or collect support. However, if you believe that establishing or enforcing child support will put you or the child in danger, you may claim "good cause" not to cooperate.
If you do not receive public assistance, you can stop enforcement of the child support order. Unpaid support is a debt that you may be able to collect later.
You can ask a court to grant a civil order of protection. A court can order an offender to stay away from you or the children.
