An adult child may be able to sue a non-custodial parent for owed back child support if the adult child is the executor or representative of their custodial parent's estate. Child support that is in arrears can be either assigned or unassigned.

Do you still have to pay child support if the child goes to college? You will not have to pay child support to the custodial parent or child after the child turns 19, even if that child is in college.

When a child turns 19 years old, the child is emancipated by operation of law, and the non-custodial parent's obligation to pay current child support terminates. An exception is if the child is incapacitated. In this case, the child support continues during the incapacity or until further order of the court.

A continuance of any type of hearing must be requested by: Filing a motion to continue with the Clerk before the hearing; or, Making a motion to continue at the hearing. Agreed motions to continue must be filed or made in the same manner.

Common situations include allegations of physical or mental abuse, significant changes in the financial situation of the custodial parent, health issues of the parent or child, a contention that the home environment provided by the custodial parent is unsafe, or the relocation of the custodial parent.

Indiana's Statute of Limitations on Back Child Support Payments (Arrears) Indiana limits enforcement of child support orders to 10 years after the child turns 18 years old or the date of emancipation, whichever is earlier. The statute of limitations for Indiana child support judgments is 20 years.
