A: She get the child support unless the current order says otherwise (ex. if the child moves out, child support stops) or your father seeks to have it modified and it is in fact modified by the court.

A: She would receive the child support until the order is changed by the court. Your father would have standing to do this and might want to seek help from a Family Attorney.

A: The order of support would have to be modified by the court. Your father would be the person who has the standing to do this, so he might want to speak with an attorney and file a petition to modify.
