De Novo Appeal (De Novo Hearing): A completely new trial or hearing in which the court decides the matter as if it had not been heard before, rather than simply reviewing the lower court's decision for legal errors.
Arrearages (Arrears): Unpaid or overdue financial support (specifically child support) that accumulates over time when an obligor fails to meet their court-ordered payments.
Pro Se: A Latin term meaning "for oneself," referring to a party who represents themselves in a legal proceeding without the assistance of a licensed attorney.
Modification Filing: A formal legal request submitted to the court asking to alter an existing custody, visitation, or child support order due to a material and substantial change in circumstances.
Judicial Notice: A rule of evidence that allows a judge to accept certain indisputable or officially documented facts as true without requiring formal proof, such as taking notice of documents already residing within the court’s official file.
Enforcement Action: A legal proceeding initiated to compel a non-compliant party to adhere to an existing court order, which can carry penalties such as wage garnishment, driver's license suspension, or incarceration.
Obligor: The individual who is legally bound by a court order to pay money or perform a specific duty (in this context, the parent ordered to pay child support).
Evidentiary Standard: The legal threshold and rules governing the admissibility and sufficiency of proof required to substantiate claims made by litigants during a court proceeding.
