Syllabus

The doctrine of latches does not apply to child support arrearages. Even if the division of juvenile services has temporary custody of a minor, the child support obligor still owes child support. The State and obligee have standing to assert a claim for child support arrearages for a child who has reached the age of majority. The Federal Consumer Credit Protection Act does not apply to child support.

Judges: Jensen, Jon J.
