Missouri HB3110 prohibits courts from ordering child support payments if parents share equal custody.

Missouri HB3110 amends child support laws to ensure that courts do not order a parent to pay child support for reasonable or necessary expenses if both parents are awarded equal time with the child. This bill aims to reflect the public policy that frequent, continuing, and meaningful contact with both parents is in the best interest of the child. The legislation also outlines various circumstances under which child support obligations may terminate, such as when the child reaches age eighteen or becomes self-supporting.
