What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NY
Ok here is the situation to see if anyone can shed some legal advise.
Scenario:
Mother of the child and child live in N.Y, There is no CS case open and the child just turned 18.
Divorce took place in FL when child was about 5 uncontested following FL jurisdiction. In the divorce decree it indicates the CS monthly paymt I was responsible for and that she agreed to follow FL state jurisdictions. Then again there was no CS case open trough court. However I had made payments all along without missing a single payment. Checks and or money order noted that it was a child support payment directly made to the mother.
FL Child support obligation is until child reaches 18,but NY is until he’s 21. Does FL jurisdiction prevails over NY because of the divorce? Or child residence ?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
