[WSBAPT] Death of Non-Custodial Parent

[Brent Williams-Ruth]

Greetings List -

I have a new probate matter where the Decedent was a non-custodial parent,
with a support obligation. There is a Will that leaves money to be set
aside for college, as required in the divorce decree.  There is NO other
reference to any further ongoing child support obligations.  The surviving
spouse (2nd wife) is worried about the former spouse making a claim for
on-going support.

This is a first for me and I am not certain if there are other family law
statutes that control as there is NOTHING in the Will or divorce decree
that requires payment of child support.

Appreciate any guidance to where I should begin!

Thank you,
Brent
