Legal Question in Family Law in California
If someone residing in California uses two names for the purpose of hiding income to avoid paying the full amount of child support due (the person has investments such as stock accounts that were not disclosed) can the custodial parent go back to court, once the child is over 18, and collect past child support?

Past due support under an existing order can be recovered regardless of the child's age. However you cannot go back and retroactively increase the amount due based on new income information unless you can prove the parent actually lied to the court when the existing amount was set.
