    Default Does My Support Obligation End when My Child "Graduates" from High School

    My question involves child support in the State of: Washington

    I have paid CS for 17 years. My son turned 18 last fall. Per my court papers my obligation ends when he turns 18 or graduates from high school. Does "graduate" refer to the day he finishes his HS coursework or the day of the graduation ceremony? His course work was completed last week and the ceremony is this week. I look @ it as though his HS degree has been earned and the ceremony is a technicality. I ask b/c my ex had the option to file a petition for post support, but I'm not sure if the courts have lost their jurisdiction b/c he is 18 and finished his HS coursework last week. Can anyone confirm? Thanks
