Child Support Did Not Go Through Courts

My husband's child support was issued from him directly to his ex-wife. He does owe some back support and in July she turned him over to the Child Support Office. I received a letter today stating that he is $1500.00 behind. I guess this is what she told them, but who can say who is right or wrong if it didn't go through the courts. I am going to contest the amount, but need some advice on what to do. This is in the State of Mississippi.
