Atlanta, GA asked in Divorce for Georgia

Q: Div doc states: CS shall be paid until the Minor Child is 18 or graduates from High School, whichever occurs first.

If my divorce document states this and the minor child just graduated from high school how do I get child support to stop being garnished from my paycheck. What paperwork do I need to file and where? Our original agreement stated that both parties agreed child support did not need to be garnished and then it was done any way. What are my rights now that my obligation is complete for child support?

A: you should contact an attorney and be prepared to go back to court. It is unclear whether your page is being garnished by the state of Georgia or by your employer through a income deduction order.
