In NYS the divorce decree is almost always superceded by the state especially if it is perceived as being in the best interest of the mom...eerrrr I mean “child.” Goes to 21 mandatory for mommy payments, errr I mean “child support”
I know a stepmom in NYC. The divorce decree said “ends at 18” Nope! The “child” is now 19 and hoping to make it into showbiz makeup artistry (pipe dream encouraged by the biomom) Mommy payments continue to fund said “child” until 21 or “child” graduates 4 year college, whichever comes LAST. Said “child” is leisurely taking froo froo courses and switching majors like nobody’s business whilst posting vids on youtube.
In NYS they take the most aggregious part of state law and combine it with the most aggregious part of the divorce decree. The formulation is what will stick biodad to the wall the most. And THAT is what the judge rules in favor of.
AMEN!
