Domestic Relations Alimony And Child Support Generally; Enforcement Of Duty To Support; Parent And Child Relationship Generally, Jaimie Johnson
Georgia State University Law Review
The Act makes sweeping changes to Georgia's child and spousal support enforcement procedures by shifting the bulk of enforcement authority from the court system to the Child Support Enforcement Agency of the Department of Human Resources (DHR).
