Any payments made directly to the Obligee shall be deemed a gift and not in satisfaction of said support. A child support worksheet is attached hereto and incorporated herein. Support shall terminate when the child reaches the age of 18 if the child no longer attends an accredited high school on a full-time basis; the child ceases to attend an accredited high school on a full-time basis after attaining the age of majority; or the child=s death, marriage, emancipation, or enlistment in the armed services.

Payments under the order are to be made in the manner ordered by the Court and, if the payments are to be made other than on a monthly basis, the required monthly administration by the agency does not affect the frequency or the amount of the support payments to be made under the order. 9. All child support, cash medical support and spousal support ordered by this order shall be withheld or deducted from the wages or assets of the obligor under the order in accordance with RC and shall be forwarded to the obligee under the order. The specific withholding or deduction requirements or other appropriate requirements to be used to collect the support shall be set forth in and determined by reference to the notices that are mailed by the court or child support enforcement agency or the court orders that are issued and mailed, and shall be determined without the need for any amendment to the support order. Those notices and court orders, plus the notices provided by the court or agency that require the person who is required to pay the support to notify the child support enforcement agency of any change in his employment status or of any other change in the status of his assets, are final and are enforceable by the court. RC Chapter The obligee immediately shall notify, and the obligor may notify, the child support enforcement agency of any reason for which the support order should terminate, including but not limited to, the child=s attainment of the age of majority if the child no longer attends an accredited high school on a full-time basis and the support order does not provide for the duty of support to continue past the age of majority; the child ceasing to attend such a high school on a full-time basis after attaining the age of majority, if the support order does not provide for the duty of support to continue past the age of majority; or the death, marriage, emancipation, enlistment in the armed services, deportation, or change of legal or physical custody of the child. A willful failure to notify the child support enforcement agency as required, as stated above, is contempt of court.
