What to do if I filed papers to “stop an order of assignment” for child support but now I want it re-instated?
The reason I did that is because the respondant was laid off, I was trying to stop it so that I could reinstate it when he found another job. I was unaware that I did not have to stop it but simply resend the original order when employment was found. How do I reinstate the order of assignment now that the respondant has another job? What paperwork do I need? Also, is this even fixable, I just need to know how to go about receiving child support again.

You need to file a request with the court for reinstatement of the child support payments owed by the third party and follow up with a petition with the court for an order starting up the payments again if the third party will not sign a stipulation and order agreeing to voluntarily make the child support payments to you.
You might consider consulting with a family law attorney about the matter you have written about for assistance.
