What is the test for a child support claim?
Saskatchewan, Canada
The following excerpt is from Lerner v. Lerner, 2008 SKQB 308 (CanLII):
In dealing with this issue I start from the premise that child support is the child’s right and the custodial parent cannot barter away support payments. See Richardson v. Richardson, (1987) 1987 CanLII 58 (SCC), 38 D.L.R. (4th) 699 (S.C.C.).
