What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas. Original child support/visitation order in another state. Other parent no longer pays child support but is still demanding visitation and lives more than 350 miles away in another state. 5 hours traveling time. The child is 18 and disabled and still enrolled in high school. 2 Questions.....do i need to accomodate these demands? Should the other parent still be paying child support?
What do the court orders say?
Ditto.
Understand that child support and visitation are not mutually exclusive. One can have an order for visitation without a child support order, and vice versa.
If a child requires “substantial care and personal supervision because of a mental or physical disability and will not be capable of self-support,” and if the disability existed or was known to exist on or before that child’s 18th birthday, then it is possible to seek support for the disabled child from one or both parents for an indefinite period.
A person has standing to sue for the support of a disabled child/adult if they are the parent or individual who has physical custody or guardianship of the child/adult under a court order. Another way to have standing to sue for indefinite support is if the child/adult themselves, is 18 or over; does not have a mental disability, and if the court determines that the child/adult is capable of managing their own financial affairs.
Why would you be wanting to withhold visitation with the child from the other parent at this point? Is there a particular reason why you feel that it would not be in your child's best interest to have an ongoing relationship with the non-custodial parent?
