Support Guidelines
Both parents have a duty to pay reasonable and necessary support to provide for the reasonable and necessary physical, mental and emotional health needs of the minor children, as well as for adult children who continue to require parental support, and children who are mentally or physically disable or attending school.

Neglect or refusal “without any lawful excuse” to support or maintain a child under the age of 18 years, or a needy spouse, is a misdemeanor.

Support Modification
Child support may be modified if a material change in the circumstances of the child or parent occurs. It is necessary to file a petition in court and notify the other party. Parents cannot modify child support by agreement without court approval.
