Studer v. Studer
Annotate this CaseIn 2002, the marriage of Beverly Studer and John Studer was dissolved in Florida. In 2003, John moved in Connecticut Superior Court to modify the amount of his child support and alimony obligations. The superior court granted the judgment. In 2010, Beverly filed two postjudgment motions for postmajority support for the parties’ child, who had autism. The trial court granted the motions and ordered John to pay child support indefinitely, concluding that Florida law controlled the duration of John’s child support obligation. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that because Florida was the first state to enter a child support order in the present case, the trial court did not err in concluding that Florida law governed the duration of John’s child support obligation.
