Re: altering a divorce decree

[quote]We recently received the paperwork from her lawyer and there was a part added that goes against the divorce decree, namely the part about child support would stop under certain circumstances, ie the child turns 18, marries, joins the military, or dies. She is trying to add that when the child turns 18 or graduates from high school,whichever comes LAST...[quote]


I dont know. I would assume that the original decree will be upheld meaning that CS will be stopped when ONE of the situations comes FIRST. It varies from state to state on certain things though so Im not sure where this would go with the one still in school at age twenty, will go in court unless there is irreputible proof that the child absolutely needed to be held back.

List your state, what the original decree says, and details on the child being held back for the others on here to reply.
