You can stop child support payments on the grounds that the child is not your biological child only if you did not know that when you agreed to the support, and if a Court approves your request to stop.

Do I still have to pay child support in California if I find out through a paternity test that a child is not biologically mine?
You are not legally required to support a child that isn't yours, but you would have to get the court that ordered the paternity payment to reverse its decision, you can't just do it for them.

If the child is an adult, no. If someone else has paid in your place he can sue you for the money. Otherwise, yes.
Will you have to pay child support for a child who is not yours?
It depends on the circumstances. If you adopted the child you have to or if you were married to the mother when the child was born and you signed the birth certificate the judge can find you should since you then took the responsibility upon yourself. If this is a situation where you are not married you can simply have a DNA test taken to prove you are not the father and you will not have to pay child support. When the court rules about child support they require a proof of paternity so there can not be any mistakes. So it depends on your situation.
