Child support payments in Ohio only terminate two ways: if the child is eighteen and has graduated high school, or by order of the court. In your case it appears Ohio laws would apply. But this answer may not be taken as legal advice, and is for entertainment purposes only. Please contact an attorney near you. The answer does not create a lawyer - client relationship, nor is it protected by lawyer client privilege.

You indicated that there is an Order in Ohio. There should be no other orders anywhere else unless you moved the case. bscribe.
