dropped out of college

My home state is Indiana. My daughter will be 18 on 10/1/00. In August she started college only to drop out after six weeks. She is back at home with my ex-wife. My question is am I still oblicated to pay child support since she is out of school, and is emancipation an automatic thing or is it something that need a court order. Also, my daughter says she "may" go back to school next year.

You have to prove in court that she is Emancipated, and prove that she dropped ou tof College.

And exactly how do I prove that she is emancipated and that she has dropped out of college. I am not the custodial parent and I have no records from her school

[b]#1 Where do you pay your child support? If it is court ordered through a judge or Child support division, then find a contact person there.

#2 Ask the school to write a letter to the contact person at the Cs division or court person if indeed this person(your daughter) is enrolled there.

#3 If this doesn't work, utilize your FERPA rights and get copies of the school records yourself and raise hell at the CS division. Make copies and copies and copies and get your lawyer to petition the court for a change.

[b]You are so right! When we suggest an attorney, we usually get blasted out of the water. Point is though, when you prove she is not in school and is emancipated, then take mom back to court and have a ruling, then child support will stop. Good luck.[/b]<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Thank you for your assistance. God Bless you and the others on just like you.Your advice is helpful as well as amusing. I will keep posted on your writings. Thank you again

To find out if your daughter is Emancipated, you can check court records. You can only go to court and be Emancipated, if you under the age of 18. If you are still paying CS, then you need to file a modification to get it in front of a judge then you can question youe ex about the alledged emancipation, and drop out.

You have Parental Rights to have access to her school records, and almost anything else for that matter.

And you should get an attorney, also you might want to look into some of this and see what you find and collaborate with your attorney on his findings.
