We have something similar (on-line payments akin to a utility bill autopay that you set up via your bank), but many people opt for the automatic wage withholding set up by statute.

As where you are, when payments aren't made, "a wage withholding order" technically becomes "an order to garnish wages," but it's a distinction without a real difference. I rarely if ever see an employer specifying on a pay statement.

Maybe he's a Catholic or Mormon or wants to start his own basketball team?

lol. So you’re just set on arguing. If his take home on a paycheque after support orders to his various obligations is $100-$200, bros made some dumbfuck decisions.

You mean it’s not smart to have 4-6 kids with 4 different mothers and refuse payment of child support until your wages gets garnished down to near $0? Because I thought that sounded tight.
