Posted by Nydia Streets of Streets Law in Florida Child Support

Entry of an income withholding order in Florida for child support or alimony is customary and generally required. Even if the parties agree for payment to be made directly from the obligor to the obligee, the court is still usually required to enter a delayed income withholding order which allows enforcement of support to be handled via the State Depository if a parent is late with payments. In Moore v. Holton, 2D19-3098 (Fla. 2d DCA March 18, 2020), a second appeal was taken regarding the trial court’s entry of an income withholding order.
