Q: son lives w/aunt and daughter with BF but I support both .Does this exclude the father from paying court ordered CS?
He filed a motion to discontinue paying because my children aren’t living with me but I still have them under my health insurance and provide for them financially .What is the law on this ?
A: Sounds like your children are not emancipated - which means that he is not entitled to terminate his child support obligation. The issue is where should his child support payment be directed? Maybe the payment should be directed to your aunt since she is the one caring for and paying for the expenses for the children (other than healthcare insurance coverage).
