Legal Question in Family Law in North Carolina

Payment of child support is irrelevant to visitation. In other words, paying child support doesn't make you more entitled to visitation. Whether you are paying child support or not paying child support - your entitlement to visitation is the same. So if the mother is being a jerk and is withholding visitation without good cause, then you need to hire a local family law attorney where the child currently reside and have the Court pop her good and proper. Once you have done that, you likely won't have any further problems with her unless she is very, very dumb. In which case, you may have to have the Court pop her several times before she learns her lesson. Best of luck.
