Re: he doesnt, gave me no number or addy and now no support.

You may file a petition to have the custody modified. It is possible, but most courts are hesitant to completely preclude one parent from seeing their children. You would have to show that he is an unfit parent.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.

You could bring an action for contempt against him if he gets behind on child support. At the same time, you could at least ask for a modification of visitation and/or custody.
