As far as a new claim? No, that ended when the child turned 18.
The age of majority for the state is 18, if there is no stipulation in the child support order as to a continuance of support after the child reaches that age, then support can be ended. To avoid future difficulties, the obligated parent should consult with a legal advisor to determine if he or she has met their legal financial obligation.
If there is an unmarried child that's reached 18, is a full-time high school student and lives with one of the parents, the parents will maintain their respective support if the child needs it, until the child completes the twelfth grade or reaches 19 years of age, whichever comes first. If the child becomes emancipated, the obligation to pay support ends. see link below for list on all states
