Consumer Complaint: Child Support Case : XXXX and XXXX I have recently become aware of a significant legal development regarding child support, which directly impacts the validity of the aforementioned cases. According to a recent Supreme Court ruling, child support has been declared unconstitutional under Article 3, Section 1. In light of this ruling, I firmly believe that all prior child support orders and associated arrears should be vacated. I kindly request that you carefully review the implications of this ruling and take appropriate action to vacate the listed cases, including any previously ordered child support and related arrears. It is crucial to align our legal system with the principles established by the Supreme Court and ensure justice for all affected parties. The Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution reads : " No State shall ... deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. '' I believe that my child support order, as it currently stands, unfairly discriminates against me and infringes upon my constitutional rights. I respectfully request that the Department of Revenue, State of Florida, re-evaluate my child support order, taking into consideration the following reasons for termination : Equal Protection : The current child support order places an unfair burden on me and does not provide for equal protection under the law, as mandated by the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Best Interests of the Child : I believe that terminating the child support order is in the best interests of the child, as my ability to provide emotional and financial support has been severely hindered. Please keep me informed about the progress of this request and provide any updates or additional instructions as necessary within 10 days of this notice. I appreciate your attention to this matter and your commitment to upholding fairness and justice within our legal system. Thank you for your time and prompt attention to this important request. Please do not hesitate to contact me in writing at the above address.
