If a warrant is out on someone for nonpayment of child support do the payments continue? 1 Answers as of February 06, 2012

Yes, the payments are still required to be paid on a regular basis. The Warrant is a way of bringing the spouse who is charged with child support payments before the Court to answer why they haven't made the payments or to make arrangements to make the payments. Until there is a new Court Order directing a different amount, the original amount is still due and payable weekly or monthly. If you have a Warrant outstanding against you, then it would be very wise to hire an attorney to accompany you to court to resolve the matter quickly. Usually, if you voluntarily surrender, things go better for you than if you are arrested on the Warrant.
