Re: Continuation of child support

Assuming there is no agreement to the contrary, a court would support your application for support into college. You would think your ex would welcome his child into a college.

As far as "staying at home" I doubt if it would be extended just for that.

If you have an attorney, I would check with the attorney, if not, call one in your city and run the question by him/her. There should be no charge for a short telephone consult but check on that to make sure.
