Securing Assets to Satisfy Past Due Child Support

In acting as the official agency in administering the child support program under Title IV-D, in cases in which there is past due child support, the child support enforcement agency may secure assets to satisfy the past due amount by issuing writs of execution. Those writs of execution may be used to secure or seize property including:

(a)periodic or lump sum payments from:

(1)an agency administering unemployment compensation benefits, workers compensation benefits or other benefits; and TITLE 5 GOVERNMENT OPERATIONS CH. 34 CHILD SUPPORT

(2)judgments, settlements and gaming proceeds otherwise belonging to the obligor, or payable upon the obligor’s demand;

(b)assets of the obligor held in financial institutions; and

(c)public and private retirement funds.
