Connecticut General Statutes Title 52. Civil Actions § 52-362i. Court may require cash deposit of support to be held by Office of Child Support Services or Support Enforcement Services

If the court or family support magistrate finds that (1) an obligor is delinquent on payment of child support, and (2) future support payments are in jeopardy, or (3) the obligor has exhibited or expressed an intention not to pay any such support, the court or family support magistrate may order the obligor to provide a cash deposit not to exceed the amount of four times the current monthly support and arrearage obligation, to be held in escrow by the Office of Child Support Services or Support Enforcement Services. Any funds from such cash deposit may be disbursed by the Office of Child Support Services or Support Enforcement Services to the custodial parent upon a determination by said office or Support Enforcement Services that the obligor has failed to pay the full amount of the monthly support obligation. Payment shall be in an amount that, when combined with the obligor's payment, would not exceed the monthly support obligation. Payment from such cash deposit shall not preclude a finding of delinquency during the period of time in which the obligor failed to pay current support.
