Once each year, the Department of Justice shall notify the parties in child support cases receiving services under ORS § 25.020 of all the following:

Terms Used In Oregon Statutes 25.025

  • Obligation: An order placed, contract awarded, service received, or similar transaction during a given period that will require payments during the same or a future period.

(1) When physical custody of a child changes from the obligee to the obligor, the obligation to pay child support for the child is not automatically terminated.

(2) When a physical change of custody of a child occurs, either party may request a modification of the support order to terminate support based on a substantial change of circumstances.

(3) At the request of either party, child support may be established for the parent with current physical custody of the child.

(4) If a change in the physical custody of a child is temporary, the obligee may satisfy support accruing for the child for periods that the child is in the physical custody of the obligor as provided in ORS § 18.225, 18.228, 18.232 and 18.235. [1997 c.385 § 4; 2003 c.73 § 18; 2003 c.576 § 575]

 

25.025 was enacted into law by the Legislative Assembly but was not added to or made a part of ORS Chapter 25 or any series therein by legislative action. See Preface to Oregon Revised Statutes for further explanation.
