   "The ACLU thinks everyone facing prison should have counsel," said President Judge S. Gerald Corso of the Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas."We do not disagree with that."
   
   Family Court personnel have been guided by federally mandated forms printed and provided by the state that advise child-support defendants of their rights, he said, but some revisions are being made.
   ...
   "The ACLU believes that anyone detained without a hearing or the benefit of appointed counsel is unconstitutionally imprisoned," Brink wrote in a letter to Corso on Dec. 3.
   ...
   Corso wrote back six days later that he had ordered a review of court procedures for all those incarcerated for nonsupport.
   
   "The case of any defendant who is potentially or possibly being detained in violation of their due process rights will be immediately rectified," he wrote.
   ...
   Corso said the 90 child-support inmates were divided into three groups: those on work-release, those who could be released if they got jobs, and "chronic offenders who have had three bench warrants issued against them in the last few years" for failure to appear.
   
   Corso said the work-release inmates were let go after they agreed to have their wages attached to pay the money they owe."They will be closely monitored," he said.
   
   Those in the middle group, he said, were told they could leave the county prison if they got jobs and agreed to return in January - preferably accompanied by lawyers - for hearings.
   
   The chronic offenders, Corso said, will go before judges to see how their cases should proceed.In some, Corso suggested, bail might be set.
   
   "And now we will hear from the other side," he said."The mothers will call next week and say, 'Johnny's not going to have a Christmas.' "
   
   Already, he said, the revisions have had a financial impact.
   
   He said a relative of one inmate showed up and wrote a check for the child-support that was owed.
   
   "Then he heard his relative could be released and stopped payment on the check," Corso said.
