What is the procedure to end child suppport in California?
No, it doesn't; you have to file to terminate it. In my case, my son turned 18 while he was still in high school. The court order stated that support was to continue until he turned 18, or left high school, which ever was later. Even after graduation, child support payments continued until I filed proof with the court that he had graduated.

How long do you pay child support in the state of Minnesota after the age 18?
From Minnesota's Child Support website: When does a child support order end? Usually a support order ends when the child turns 18 or completes secondary school, but not later than when the child reaches age 20. However, parents can negotiate a court order that provides for support to continue later, such as through college education. Support can continue indefinitely for a child incapable of self-support because of a physical or mental condition. Minn. Stat. § 518A.26, subd. 5. Parents should be aware that privately negotiated agreements can be altered by the court if the court determines the agreement is not in the best interests of the child.
If you were court ordered to pay child support in a divorce and have more kids later on how do you have the initial amt of child support lowered for the first kid from the divorce?
It depends upon the state you live in and what their laws are regarding modification of child support. In Texas, for example, you would need to file a modification of child support.
Is there a law that says you have to go to court to pay child support?
I suppose the parents could agree on child support without going to court; however, I would counsel against it. From the obligee's perspective, such an agreement is probably not enforceable, and as for the obligor, such an agreement would not preclude the obligee from going to court later.
In Mississippi if a father has been court ordered to pay child support and later gets on disability does he still have to pay child support?

Yes, but it can be considered a gift by the court, with retroactive support ordered later. In Ohio, it is specifically designated as such under rule of law. Anything paid prior to the court order would not be counted as "support payment".
Would your ex husband be obligated to pay child support for the years before you filed the petition?
Probably not, some US states do allow child support arrearages to be paid after the order is granted but it is contingent on the specifics of each case. The court will want a complete explanation of why a support order was not pursued at the birth of the child or shortly there after, rather then years later. If the reason is something such as the father could not be located arrearages might be granted.
