‘ABCs of Abatement’ presented online
Michigan law changed several years ago to allow for administrative abatement of support when the payer is incarcerated. Many things have changed since then with processes, system programming and reports.
This session will focus on, among other things,: requirements to qualify for administrative abatement, what actions are required upon the payer’s release and case considerations impacting how to work with parents in these situations.
Speakers will be management analysts Paul Gehm and Amy Lindholm, Friend of the Court Bureau, State Court Administrative Office, Michigan Supreme Court.
