Legal Question in Family Law in South Carolina

You must abide by the terms of the last Order until it no longer applies or you have it changed. Typically child support runs until the child turns 18 or graduates from high school, whichever is later. Therefore, if the Order requires you to pay child support to the mother and the child is still in high school, then you must pay her until and unless you file an action to have the Court issue a new Order.

These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
