Legal Question in Family Law in Mississippi
Can a non custodial parent be forced to pay child support for a 20 year old that is attending college under a full ride scholarship? The scholarship covers food, medical/dental, and room and board. The scholarship also pays a monthly stipend to the child. (Paternity has never been established). The noncustodial parent voluntarily supports the child directly but there is no court order.

If paternity has never been established then child support is not required
