What is the penalty to nj employers that withhold, but do not remit child support wage garnishment?

Contact your county child support and make sure your investigator or probation officer contacts the employer to find out the problem- Perhaps the company is sending in the payments but are being held in the payments center in suspense because the employer failed to write case number in it (happens all the time), another possibility may be that employer sends in payments once a month (also happens a lot because its cheaper for them) OR if the problem in fact is that they are holding the payments and not sending it to the payment center at all then the investigator has to submit case to court and subpoena the employer. Worst come to worst a judgment is entered against the employer.|||Wow, I do not know the answer to this but I thought I had it bad. That's horrible.
