Suing The Child Support Agency in Federal Court

The time has come to sue the child support agency in federal court. Let's walk through the steps together, detailing the structure of your complaint and everything you'll need to know.

Step 1. Prepare your complaint. Included in the child support discharge package, your complaint will be the cornerstone of your case. It begins with the main page where you'll name the federal district in which your original case is located.

This page will also list you, the plaintiff, and the defendants, which includes the child support agency and any other parties involved, like the originating court or the Department of Motor Vehicles, if your license was suspended. The case number will be provided when you file your complaint with the clerk.

Step 2. Drafting the complaint. Your complaint should include the following sections. An introduction. Here, you will briefly state the purpose of the complaint and the relief you seek. The Jurisdiction and Venue. Here, you'll explain why the Federal Court has jurisdiction over your case and why the venue is appropriate. The Parties. You'll identify the plaintiff, which is you, and the defendants, including the Child Support Agency and any other relevant parties. The factual allegations. Here, you'll detail the specific actions and events that led to your complaint, providing a clear narrative of how your rights were violated.

Step 3. Then we have the causes of action with counts. You'll list the causes of action with counts related to the agency's violations of the law. Here are some examples of the violations the child support agency may have partook in:

Violation of 42 USC 652, child support enforcement compliance. Violation of 42 USC 1983, Civil Action for Deprivation of Rights. Violation of 31 USC 3123, Government Misrepresentation of Payment Obligations. Violation of 18 USC 1028 a, identity theft in child support enrollment. Violation of 42 USC 1985, conspiracy to interfere with civil rights.

Step 4. List the case law related to the violations. Here you'll include case law related to the counts listed. This strengthens your complaint by showing precedents where similar violations were recognized and ruled upon. Highlight how these cases support your claims against the Agency.

Step 5. Request for relief. Here, you'll clearly state the relief you are seeking. This includes monetary damages and specific actions you want the court to order. For instance, the penalty for emotional distress per count alone is $200,000.

Step 6. The civil cover sheet and summons. Next, complete the civil cover sheet and summons. These documents are crucial for formally initiating your lawsuit. The civil cover sheet provides an overview of your case while the summons notifies the defendants that they're being sued and must respond.

Step 7. Filing your Federal complaint. Take your completed complaint civil cover sheet and summons to the Federal court clerk's office. The clerk will file your documents, assign a case number, and guide you on the next steps. Remember, accurate filing is essential for the success of your case.
