Macomb Father Arraigned for Failing to Pay Child Support, Owes More Than $12K
Mount Clemens, MI - A 35-year-old Macomb man has been arraigned on charges of failing to pay child support for his minor child.
On Wednesday, July 17, 2013, Macomb County Circuit Court Judge Matthew Switalski ordered Lee Davison-Weigt to pay $327.00 per month in child support for his minor child. A modification was made in 2022 for him to pay $553.00 a month. He allegedly owes $12,077.22 in back child support.
After exhausting all enforcement efforts, the Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office charged Davison-Wegt with Failing to Pay Child Support, a four-year felony. On Wednesday, November 20, 2024, Borelli was arraigned in the 41B District Court in Clinton Township by Magistrate Ryan Zemke, who set bond at $3,019.00. A Probable Cause Hearing is scheduled for Monday, December 2, 2024 at 1:00pm before District Court Judge Carrie Fuca.
"Failing to meet child support obligations impacts the well-being of children and families. Our priority is to ensure Macomb County children receive the support they need and deserve," said Macomb County Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido.
The Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office Family Division handles felony nonsupport cases when a noncustodial parent owes over $5,000 in child support. To qualify for review, the case must involve an arrearage of $5,000 or more, failure to pay for three consecutive months, and the ability of the noncustodial parent to pay. The goal is to ensure children receive financial support from both parents and uphold justice. To start a child support case, call the Office of Child Support at (866) 540-0008, or if owe more than $5,000, contact the Family Division at (586) 493-4488.
