More details to this question:
My ex is taking me back to court to extend child support after my daughter is over 21. My daughter is still in college. My daughter lives with her mother. I have never agreed to pay for college (verbal or written).

In NY child support ends when the child turns 21. Unless there is some other agreement made, you can go to court and have it terminated at that time. You do have to take that step though or it will continue.
