Legal Question in Family Law in Oklahoma
Paying Child-Support through the age-of majority.
My divorce decree states that I pay child-support ''through the age-of-majority as long as said child(ren)are in high school.'' In Oklahoma, A/Maj. is 18. Therefore, I would be obligated to pay until their 19th birthday. Q: If a ''child'' turns 19 in the middle of his/her senior year,doesn't 'my obligation' still END on their 19th B.D.?
