This process begins with paternity adjudication and ends at the enforcement of a court order. The unit has its own accounting division, which is not only responsible for collection and disbursement of support payments, but also reconciliation of bank accounts and distribution of revenue to the County Treasurer. Money collected may be used to repay Public Assistance, Foster Care and Medicaid expenditures, but largely the collections are for individuals in the community who have no dealings with the recipient assistance programs.     ©2002 Chemung County Government
