No, but your mother can. * Yes,in most states once a child becomes of legal age they can sue a parent for non-support only if there was a valid court order for support to be paid. States that allow such litigation also have established SOL's concerning the matter.
Fathers have a legal obligation to support their children until those children become adults. An 18 year old who is not being supported by his father does not really have a case. At 18 you are legally an adult. If you want someone to take care of you, join the army. It's not just a career, it's an adventure.
No. You have remember that "support" is what the (usually) father pays the mother for the upkeep of the child. If the child moves out, the mother is no longer supporting the child and the father no longer needs to pay her.
Only up to one year past the age of majority.
Back support is owed the obligee parent, however any continuing support can go to the child.
Sue for child support? That would be up to the mother to do. And if she did sue, she would be the one to get the money if she won, not the young adult child since the mother was the one who raised and supported the child.
Research the child support laws for both states and find which state offers WHAT IS IN THE BEST INTEREST FOR THE CHILD. but remember if you go to the other state to sue for child support everytime you have to appear in court you will have to travel to that state.
Yes
Yes, its child support. If the money is not used to support the child then its being misused. Alimony would be to support you. If the father is looking after the child, then he should not be paying child support to the mother - she doesn't have the cost of looking after the child at that time. In fact, the mother may well be in a position to send chilod support to the father - it goes both ways and she is responsible for the child just as much as the father is.
no. not at all
He is the father and not to allow him his child would hurt the child. Take him to family court for the support.
No, in order for a lawsuit for child support arrearages to be valid the support order needs to have been in affect before the child reached the age of majority.
Yes, the father will need to pay child support in order to support his child. You are responsible for supporting your child until they reach the age of 18.
No. You have remember that "support" is what the (usually) father pays the mother for the upkeep of the child. If the child moves out, the mother is no longer supporting the child and the father no longer needs to pay her.
In general, the courts will not initiate support for a 23-year-old child (past-due support, owed from when the child was a minor, is another matter), unless the child is severely handicapped.
In general, child support is a percentage of net income. If the obligor has the child for an extended period of time, the court may suspend support for that period.
no
Yes, as long as the legal custody schedule is changed, child support can also be adjusted.
Techincally yes, but if he doesn't know that he has s childe then the court maybe will grant him partial child support in your case
