What is the name of your state? California
I am paying child support for 2 children. The wording of the divorce decree is " $x,xxx per month...continuing as to each said child until each said child reaches majority, dies, marries, becomes self-supporting, emancipated or until further order of Court, whichever first occurs. Pursuant to Family Code Section 3901, child support is to continue as set forth above and extend as to any unmarried child who has attained the age of 18, is a full time high school student, and who is not self-supporting, until the time the child completes the 12th grade or attains the age of 19 years, whichever first occurs."
The amount of child support is a single number, and I have been paying slightly more than that since the start date.
My oldest child graduates from high school in June and turns 18 in July. Upon his 18th birthday, can I cut the child support in half or am I obligated to continue paying the specified amount until my younger child turns 18 in two years?
