LAIR v. LAIR
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
Nov 14, 1949
Order denying appellant's motion to modify the final judgment of divorce by striking out the provision for support of the daughter of the parties, who has become twenty-one years of age, reversed on the law, without costs, and the motion granted, without costs. There appears to be no common-law or statutory liability for support of an adult child by the father thereof, in the absence of a showing of unusual circumstances. (Cf. Social Welfare Law, § 101; N.Y. City Dom. Rel. Ct. Act, § 101.) Carswell, Acting P.J., Johnston, Adel, Wenzel and MacCrate, JJ., concur.
