Question: After a divorce decree was entered, Richard Pressley was ordered to pay $20-per-week child support. He made payments directly to his ex-wife. A year later she applied for public assistance and was required to assign her right to support to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Public Welfare. Pressley was never notified of the assignment and continued to make payments to his ex-wife. Four years later the Department of Public Welfare sought to collect the support payments from Pressley. Was Pressley bound on the assignment? [Commonwealth v. Pressley, 479 A.2d 1069 (Pa. Super. Ct.)]
