    Basically he cannot - you can refuse to allow him to see his daughter, the Court can refuse to allow him to see his daughter - but he will owe child support unless/until someone adopts the child.

    If his employer has stopped direct withdrawal of child support they are in contempt of the Court's order which, by the way, can only be changed/amended by ANOTHER Court order. I'd bring that to the attention of the employer AND the Court.

    And go back to Court and have all visitation privileges stopped.

    This is a legal question and I have asked that it be moved to that board.
