More details to this question:
I was awarded full custody of my son and receive child support. He recently turned 18 and his mother pulled him out of school and enrolled him in school where she lives. I have been getting child support from her but now we have a court date to end that and another one for me to start giving child support. Is there anything I can do about this situation? (He graduates in May)

Child support is the obligation of a non custodial parent until the child turns 18 and graduates high school, whichever is later. If custody changed, so would the child support. However, custody cannot simply change without your agreement or a court order. If you didn’t agree to it, you should consider an Emergency Petition to reverse the custody change.
