Q: If I have cancelled child support payments due to reconcilliation is the child custody order still in place?
A:
Thank you for your question. I know how worried you must be about your child support case.
The short answer is possibly. Generally, the order must be vacated by a Judge in the county that entered the Court order. There are various processes and procedures in each county to “Terminate” a child support order that must be followed in order for the child support case to be terminated for both current, future, and any child support arrears. It is important to protect your interests and have an experienced family law lawyer explain your rights and obligations.
I hope this information was helpful to you.
