In re the Marriage of BARBARA and WILLIAM C. SCHOPFER.
WILLIAM C. SCHOPFER, Appellant, v. DANIEL BONEBRAKE, Respondent.	C060549 (Super. Ct. No. 96FL01642)

APPEAL
from a judgment of the Superior Court
of Sacramento
County, Jerilyn L. Borack, Judge. Affirmed.



Frank
E. Dougherty and Matthew K. Purcell for Appellant.



Law Office of Derraugh Manion

Respondent.





Following the
death of his ex-wife, William C. Schopfer (father) shared custody of his
daughter, Jennifer, with her stepfather, Daniel C. Bonebrake (stepfather). Pursuant to a court order, father also paid
stepfather $900 each month in child support.
Four months before Jennifer was expected to graduate from high school,
however, and a month before she was to turn 18, father moved to reduce his
child support obligation to zero. The trial court denied his motion.

On appeal, father
contends the trial court erred in denying his request to modify support because
under subdivision (a) of Family Code section 3951[1]
and Plumas County Dept. of Child Support
Services v. Rodriquez (2008) 161 Cal.App.4th 1021 (Rodriquez), â€
