Legal Question in Family Law in Washington

Question regarding support

My best friend has been paying child support for over five years, and just found out that his ex-wife remarried two years ago. Does he still have to continue to pay her child support even though her and her new husband make 10 times more than he does. He lives on $600.00 a month!

yes, he does need to continue to pay child support until the child is 18 years old. However, he can move to modify the child support order either by filing with DSHS or with the Superior Court for the county in which he resides.
