Syllabus

The trial court did not err in dismissing Mother's motion to hold Father in contempt for claiming the parties' emancipated daughter as a dependent on his 2015 taxes, as the issue of which parent could claim the parties' daughter as a tax exemption after the daughter reached the age of majority was not agreed upon by the parties or set forth in the adopted shared parenting plan. Moreover, as the parties' daughter had reached the age of majority, the court no longer had jurisdiction to determine which parent should be permitted to claim her on their taxes.
