As far as I know, from a friend who went through this the debt will not be written off and you will have to pay, the CSA can even put a charge on your house to recover the debt if the mother request it.
Nor will the debt be written off once the child reaches 18. You could try offering to settle for a cash amount with the mother, and then the debt can be closed.
How do you know this guy hasnt had an informal arrangement with the mother for the last 15 years? Is it the mother contesting you owe them a large amount or the CSA themselves? If its the CSA and you have had an arrangement with the mother for the last 15 years then tell the CSA that if the mother supports your claim then they will have to drop it as you have already PAID your contribution to your childs upbringing.
