Child Support

• No, the father has to pay child support for both children. Of course the child that decides to live with him will be treated as he/she were when you were both married, but the child you have will still continue to receive child support by law!

== == == == == == Financial obligations of either parent depends upon the terms of the child support order. If there is not a court order then the parent cannot be forced to pay a specific amount nor other expenses until an order of support has been received. Yes, the noncustodial parent is OBLIGATED to pay child support, figured out by a program entered into a computer program, based on each parents net income, as well as time shared by each parent, with the child or children. Both parents are required to equally share the child care costs incurred, while the custodial parent works and also goes to school in every state that I know of. As well as, costs incrued for any medical costs for the child over what the insurance pays out. Of course you need a court order to enforce this, although every court that I am aware of, will uphold these terms.

At 18, any child in any state is considered a legal adult. Therefore, emancipation is moot.

Only if approved by the judge.

Yes, unless/until the child is adopted.

Since it ends at 18 or graduation, the expense to go to court would not be warranted. see links below

Yes, up to the limit set by the state. see links below

Of course. Unless the non-custodial parent takes sole custody, the non-custodial parent is still responsible for paying child support to whomever the child goes to. There is no reason the death of a parent should terminate the other parent's child support obligation.

You can always be sued.

In such a situation, your wife will probably sue you for divorce, and the pregnant woman will probably sue you for child support.

In general child support is paid until the child(ren) are 18 yrs. of age. However, it may be extended until the age of 21 (depending on the state) if the child(ren) is attending college.

This judge will determine what they think is fair and equitable compensation. They look at not only his tax return for actual income, but also at the current lifestyle of which you have become accustomed. You are trying to get child support that will keep you in the lifestyle that you are accustomed, but that may not be possible unless the judge orders a very high percentage of the income to be given to you. This is exactly why many wealthy men have pre-nups and estate planning to protect their assets from legal actions. If he has done it correctly an d legally, there will not be much you can do to attach his business assets or income. However, if he has ownership of that company in a form of Stock, limited partnership, etc... then you may be entitled to part of his company as well as his income. The best advice is to hire a very good divorce attorney that can legally research his net worth. He may also have unknown assets like bonds or retirement accounts and life insurance policies with monetary value in his name, not mention other real estate or shares in his brokerage account.

You are responsible you dick....quit being a retard, man up and take care of YOUR child.

Yes, once paternity is established the biological father of the child can be ordered by the court to financially support that child.

The only way would be to do a personal agreement between the mother & father, ideally having it filed with the court. However, at any time, either parent can utilize Child Support without the other parent's consent. If the Mother spends more time with the child than the Father, she is most likely entitled to child support.

There must be extreme circumstances before a court will permanently revoke parental rights. For instance in cases of minor children having children the court will generally award temporary custody to qualified person(s) or to a state agency. The birth parent will still retain visitation privileges and may be responsible for child support depending on circumstances. State DFS will periodically reevaluate the case. However, the biological parent(s)if they so choose,may petition the court for reinstatement of parental rights. He/she will be required to present substantiating evidence to prove they are qualified for having parental rights returned. Including submitting to an investigation by DFS and/or supporting agencies or persons so ordered by the court.

Usually it's 21. Generally it will be the legal age of majority as established by the state where the minor resides. The determination of the date when the child support terminates should be included in your original or amended support order If you still are not certain, contact the attorney who handled the case or the court clerk where the order was issued. NEVER cease support payments unless you are absolutely positive of the legal status of the order.

The other parent has to file, and you have an opinion, but not a choice. see links below

Not if they are addressed seperately in the order for support or divorce decree. Even if you are not ordered to pay for the auto insurance, you cannot reduce the amount that you pay to the custodial parent without their consent or an order from the court. If they refuse to allow the deduction the only thing you can do is stop paying for the auto insurance. However, it the agreement to pay auto insurance was one that you made separate from the child support, you are then dealing with a contract situation because you made a contract, even if it was only verbally, to pay for the insurance and before cancelling that contract you need to give proper notice of cancellation.

Yes, but do this through the courts.

Missouri has no specific forms in this regards. Consider contacting a Doc Prep Service.

Yes. It's why people are campaigninmg for transparency of Public Family Law Courts. I know a guy who is violent, has a criminal record as long as your arm and was a coke and heroin abuser - woman hater. Caused death. Was given custody due to him convincing the court that the mothers were narcissists. Two mothers. Both terrorised by him. British justice = oxymoron

Some states have time limitations on filing for paternity determination. So, if you previously acknowledged the child as yours, signed papers stating that you are the father, are on the birth certificate, and the time limit has passed, you lose the chance to chance to be removed. Therefore, you may still be 'legally' the parent, even if you are not biologically the parent. And therefore, you would be liable to pay child support.

Depends. Legal age of emancipation, for child support purposes, is 21 in MS. Meaning that you are obligated to pay child support until the child reaches 21. Exceptions do apply such as, the child getting married or moving out on his/her own, not maintaining a full time student status or joins the military full time before the age of 21, then child support, by order of the courts, can possibly be stopped.

You can check with A attorney, But, I am pretty sure that If She remaries and The new husband adopts the kid/s Then they have A supporting father so you aor not needed.

No, the debt is all his.
