Remarriage and child support
I am paying child support to my ex-wife and she has remarried to the man she had an affair with. Do I have to continue to pay child support?

Re: Remarriage and child support
Your child support obligation to your child will not end because of the remarriage of your ex-wife. The obligation will continue as provided in the final order, unless your ex-wife's new husband seeks to adopt the minor child and you voluntarily surrender your parental rights over to him.
