I hope this is an easy question (s).....

[jolawanda]

Case: NJ
We live in NV

Filing for emancipation of another 23 year old.
No proof of her ever in college., even though standing court order specifies every quarter.

What if the two parties agree on emancipation?

What if they agree on the amount of CS for the last kid?

What papers get filed?

Thanks

You can file a joint motion to terminate support on grounds that the parents agree that the child is emancipated, and provide a joint affidavit declaring the facts that satisfy proof of this circumstance under NJ law.

It's still up to the court to declare the child emancipated, but if you're both in agreement, then the court will probably agree. You also need to make personal service on the "child," because a 23 y o is an adult who can assert his/her own interests and try to defeat the parents' motion.

>What if they agree on the amount of CS for the last kid?

Motion to modify support on grounds that the parents agree to an amount of support that they believe is in the child's best intersts.

See above.

PS. I need to express an unusual moment of frustration here about the 23 y o CHILD, and my opinion of NJ law on this particular matter.

WHAT A CROCK OF !@#$!

Thanks for allowing me to vent.

they are called ***adult children*** That is what the courts in NJ call them! x(

what an oxymoron statement..LOL


thanks for the info!

I could go on and on about married vs divorced and who does and doesn't get legally forced into supporting adults. ;(
