Q: Can child support be transferred from a state that ends support at 19yo to a state that ends at 18yo just to end support
The noncustodial parent lives in Florida. The custodial parent and child lives in Alabama. The noncustodial parent thought he was done with child support when the child reaches 18, however in Alabama its 19yo. He now wants to petition the court to transfer the case to his state so that he can get of child support by the child's 18th birthday which is in 3 months.
A: Another imaginative idea from a person who does not understand the law. That won't work. The case stays where the child is.
