However I would like to see a court case/opinion regarding this matter.

If my child is 20 years old and lives on a college campus can the child support go straight to him instead of the mother?
First of all, court ordered child support is paid until a child reaches the age of 18 so it would go to the custodial parent who is caring for the child If this is back child support from before the child turned 18, it would still go to the custodial parent who is on the court order. You would still owe any unpaid balances to the custodial parent.Obviously, the parent supported the child until the age of 18 and is entitled the money she should have been receiving for child support. If you are volunteering the support to help the child with college, then you can give it to the child yourself.
