Marriage of Ryan CA4/1
Appellant Paul Ryan (Paul) appeals from a postjudgment order denying his request to modify to zero dollars a stipulated child support obligation payable to his ex-wife, respondent Jamie Ryan (Jamie), regarding their now adult son Matthew. Child support was originally set pursuant to a 2002 marital settlement agreement (MSA) that was incorporated into the judgment in their dissolution action, entered when Matthew was five years old. It provided for child support to continue until further order of the court or until the child reached 18 years of age (or died or became emancipated, neither of which applies); "provided, however, that if such child has attained age eighteen (18), is unmarried, is not self-supporting and is attending high school or college on a full-time basis, said support shall continue until the child is no longer attending high school or college on a full time basis, graduates from college, or attains age twenty-three (23), whichever first occurs."
