What this law says, in plain English

Criminal nonsupport occurs when a person legally responsible for a child's support knowingly fails to provide necessary food, care, clothing, shelter, medical attention, or education. The offense is a class A misdemeanor normally, but escalates to a class C felony under specified circumstances involving unpaid court-ordered child support.
