The money would be owed to your father as your custodial parent and he would most likely have the legal standing to collect it, not you. It is often easy to get judgement from a court saying the debt is owed but very difficult to collect. If your state has a child support enforcement dept., talk to them. Otherwise I would have him get the judgement and try to garnishee her wages where she works if that's a possibility.
There's an old axiom, "You can't get blood out of a turnip" that may be true in this case.
