Collections Rise 16% for Child Support
Child support collections in Ventura County were up nearly 16% for fiscal year 1993-94, according to the office of the district attorney.
Collections for the year totaled more than $27.2 million, an increase of $4 million over the previous fiscal year. The county’s fiscal year ends June 30.
“This is good news for the children of Ventura County and for custodial parents who need these payments to provide for food, clothing and shelter,” Dist. Atty. Michael D. Bradbury said in a release Friday.
Bradbury said collections for fiscal year 1994-95 already have surpassed last year’s totals at this date.
He cited aggressive collection efforts and the cooperation of the Franchise Tax Board in holding back refund money as factors in the office’s success.
