Question

Child Support

If termination of parental rights has been levied on parent, is the custodial parent still eligible to receive support for their child?



Answer

Re: Child Support

If a parent's rights are terminated, that severs all relationship to the child, including visitation AND support. So, if the parent's rights are terminated, he/she is not required to pay child support from that point forward, but any support owed through the time of termination will likely still be due and payable.

If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
