Our child support arrangement has always been a private agreement drawn up by an a local attorney, it has worked for the last 12 years. I've been back in Michigan since September of 2002, now we are considering going through the court, due to factors like unconvered medical cost, possible assistance with college tuition. The question is what State has jurisdiction over this case? I think it would be the state the minor child lives in. He thinks it would be the state he lives and works in (where she was born). How do I find out which state is the correct state to purse assistance and aid with this matter?
