It is therefore 10 the legislature's intent to facilitate the establishment of paternity and child support 11 orders and encourage payment of child support to decrease overall costs to the state's 12 taxpayers while increasing the amount of financial support collected for the state's 13 children. To this end, the courts of this state are authorized to prohibit the purchase 14 or consumption of alcoholic beverages by and suspend certain licenses of individuals 15 who are found to be in contempt of court for failure to comply with a subpoena or 16 warrant in a child support or paternity proceeding or who are not in compliance with 17 a court order of child support. 18 * * * 19 §315.32.
