District Attorney Jerry S. Moore said Thursday that during the Child Support Docket in Sequoyah County District Court on April 20 five failed to appear in court.

He said bench warrants were issued for those who failed to appear as summoned. The five non-custodial parents for whom warrants were issued are:

—Amanda Frost, owes $12,367.60

—Dale Schubert, owes $10,825

—Melissa Snell, owes $5,708.89

—Eutiquio Ortega, owes $1,805

—Stan Smith, owes $6,696

Anyone with information about where these or other wanted persons can be found should call any local law enforcement officer for immediate apprehension.

Other parents who are obligated to pay child support paid a total of $1,386 in open court during the Child Support Docket.

Moore said the mission of the Oklahoma Child Support Enforcement Division (CSED) is to enhance the well being of children by establishing, monitoring, and enforcing reliable sources of support for families entitled to child support.

The Oklahoma legislature and Congress recently enacted laws to allow Child Support Enforcement Offices to collect child support owed from non-custodial parents who receive payments from Social Security, Worker’s Compensation Court and regular employment paychecks. Employers can be fined $200 a day for not mailing child support payments which have been withheld from an employee’s paycheck.

For information on child support contact Child Support Enforcement at 1-800-522-2922, or visit the Web address at www.okdhs.org.

The District Attorney’s CSED will be available on the first Wednesday of every month at the offices of Oklahoma Department of Human Services in Stilwell between the hours of 1 and 3 p.m. or at the Sallisaw office at 1611 S. Kerr Blvd. in Sallisaw on any work day from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m.

Anyone owing child support is encouraged to call 1-800-522-2922 or contact the local offices in Sallisaw to make payment arrangements. Child Support payments should be mailed to OCSE, P.O. Box 268849 Oklahoma City, Okla. 73126-8849. Assistant District Attorney John Sawney is the managing attorney for the Sallisaw Child Support office.
