    Question Interpreting a Child Support Order

    I am quoting from a California MSA.

    "Beginning on October 1, 2005 and continuing monthly thereafter the Husband shall pay the Wife the sum of $xxx Dollars per month as Child Support. The Husband's obligation to make support payments for the child shall cease when the child marries, dies, reaches the age of eighteen (18) years, becomes emancipated, or until further order of a court of competent jurisdiction. If, however, the child reaches the age of eighteen (18) years, is unmarried and resides with the Wife, is not self-supporting, and is a full time high school student, the support obligation shall continue as to the child, persuant to California Family Code 3901(a) until the child marries, dies, no longer resides with the Wife, becomes self supporting, no longer is a full-time high school student, completes twelfth grade or reaches the age of ninteen (19) years, whichever first occurs."

    Am I correct that if the child graduates from high school when they are 17, the support would still continue until the child's 18th birthday (as long as the child does not marry, die, become emancipated or the court changes this order)?
