Court Hearing About Unknown Paternity

I have been named the father of a 3yr old boy, but paternity is unknown. I got a paper in the mail for a child support hearing but it was not certified. My question is do i have to go. I was recently unemployed and do not have the money to go the distance to attend court. what happens if i don't go.

Child Support Questions

Yes you should go. If you cannot attend then you need to contact the courts and see if you can get some type of continuance. If possible you should attend this hearing. If you do not show up for court then a judge can rule you a no show, charge you with contempt and set an outrageous child support amount. You need to be there to defend yourself. Have they ordered paternity testing?


Thanks
