Hello, I have a family member who was picked up in Ohio six days ago for a warrant for child support. The warrant is from Michigan. From my understanding Michigan is making all past due child support a felony warrant. He has been in the county jail for six days and was told Michigan had as long as they wanted to come get him because it is a felony. Is this possible? It's seems very unfair especially because he is in the process of asking for a lower child support payment because he switched jobs and make 1/5 of what he did. What are his rights? Shouldn't he have some sort of court date or something. To make matters worse I can not get any help from his child support lawyer here in Ohio.
Thank you for any help you can give me.
