College-kid child support bill killed

January 26th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Domestic Relations, General Assembly

Del. John M. O’Bannon III, R-Henrico, kicked up a lot of dust with a bill that would allow a judge to order child support for adult children up to age 23 if they are attending college.  The dust settled quickly, though, when O’Bannon allowed the bill to die in the House Courts of Justice Committee last week.

The legislation came under fire on a Richmond radio show and in online comments.

    And I am pleased to have been the primary instigator of the dust kicking…that having been said, Senate Bill 319 still exists.
