Legal Question in Family Law in California
registering an order after age of majority
She had waited 19 years when registered a support order. This was after the youngest has reached the age of majority, who has jurisdiction over the order? When she registered the order she requested to only enforce the arrears on the support order from New Mexico. The state that the order came from has an SOL of 12 years and 4% interest. The CA Family Code says that the state with the longest SOL is used. Family code 4953(d) says that a tribunal of this(CA)or another state determines which is the controling order and issues an order consolidating arrears, etc. Since she is trying to collect arrears from an order that is has gone past the age of Majority, does the issueing state of the order retain control of the order? How do they determine which state has the control on an order? I feel that the state of California is very bias when it comes to believing men.

Re: registering an order after age of majority
More detail is need to tell you whether the child support order can be enforced or it is too late. You may e-mail me and I can get more information. I need to know what state you are living in and what state the mother is living in, as well as what state and when the child support order was made. Pat McCrary
