Make a suggestion for me to write about.
This bill is introduced by Senators Steele and Talian who are members of the Indiana Child Custody and Support Advisory Committee. The bill makes technical corrections to a law enacted last year. This bill will bring continuity between the portions related to dissolution of marriage and paternity. It will be retroactive to July 1, 2012 when the law went into effect. Passage is assured.
Senate Bill 0006 affects the following citations: IC 31-16-6-6. The synopsis is as follows:
Synopsis: Petitioning for support for educational needs. Adds certain provisions in the paternity statute regarding petitioning for educational support to the dissolution of marriage statute. (The introduced version of this bill was prepared by the Indiana child custody and support advisory committee.)
Here is the text of the language copied from the dissolution section that is to be added to the paternity section.
(c) A child who is receiving child support under an order issued before July 1, 2012, may file a petition for educational needs until the child becomes twenty-one (21) years of age.
(d) A child who is receiving child support under an order issued after June 30, 2012, may file a petition for educational needs until the child becomes nineteen (19) years of age.
An emergency is declared for this act.
