Definition: DPPA stands for Deadbeat Parents Punishment Act. It is a federal law that punishes parents who fail to pay child support.

Example: John was ordered by the court to pay $500 a month in child support for his two children. However, he stopped paying after a few months. His ex-wife filed a complaint, and John was found guilty of violating the DPPA. He was fined and sentenced to six months in jail.
