    Default Uncovered Medical Bills

    My question involves child support in the State of: NJ


    My daughter was emancipated effective May 1. I have some uncovered medical bills from before that time and after. Can I bring my ex-husband back to court to require him to pay his share of
    of those bills. or is it a mute point because she is emancipated?

    Thanks!

    As far as the uncovered medical bills "After". the answer is no. The "Before" ones will probably need to be handle in small claims court, if he was required to pay a percentage which was specifically stated in the order.

    It wouldn't be handled by a motion in family court? If not, then why small claims court?

    Because the issues you are questioning are bills (money not the child) that is being brought up after the order has been closed. If the NCP over paid their arrears he or she would have to go to small claims court to "Try" to recoup their overpayment after the case has been closed. Your issue is no difference. You are trying to recoup nonpayment after the case has been closed.
