Argentine judicial enforcement of child support

Overview

Judicial rulings in Argentina have increasingly utilized non-patrimonial measures and custody changes to address child support delinquency and parental abandonment.

In Benito Juárez, a court prohibited a debtor from attending or participating in football events in Tandil and Benito Juárez after traditional enforcement methods, such as asset seizures, failed to secure payments for over a year. The judge utilized reforms to the Buenos Aires Provincial Procedural Code to implement these restrictions.

In Jujuy, a court issued a ruling granting a mother exclusive custody and suspending the parental responsibilities of an absent father. This decision followed a systematic failure to meet support obligations and total abandonment of upbringing duties. The ruling allows the mother to make critical decisions regarding health, education, and travel without parental authorization, while the father is added to the National Registry of Child Support Debtors.
