my ex is about to get layed off. i'm trying to find out if that means he doesn't have to pay child support.

Answer: This means that he will receive unemployment compensation if he is terminated and not fired. As for Child support - he may not make enough money on unemployment to cover child support. Which would totally suck. The cool thing is that he will get in big trouble if he doesn't pay and eventually he might end up in jail. Hopefully he will pay you something. I will keep my fingers crossed that he will continue to pay you.
