Hirsch v. Oliver
Annotate this CaseIn this case, after two hearings, the trial court issued a number of post-dissolution orders. Relevant to this appeal were the trial court's specific findings related to the emancipation of a child and the requirement of a parent to contribute toward the child's post-secondary educational expenses. The court of appeals (1) reversed on the issue of emancipation, determining that the trial court clearly erred in concluded that the child was emancipated as of a certain date under Ind. Code 31-16-6-6(a); and (2) reversed the trial court's finding that Father was not responsible for educational expenses regarding the child after hearing testimony from Father, Mother, and the child. The Supreme Court (1) reversed the court of appeals on the emancipation issue and remanded to the trial court to determine the proper date of the child's emancipation; and (2) reversed the court of appeals and affirmed the trial court's ruling on post-secondary educational expenses.
