Description
1 In this appeal, we are asked to determine the district courts authority, when sitting as a family court, to enforce that portion of a marriage settlement agreement which provides for post-minority child support of an emancipated child. This appeal implicates two questions. The central question concerns the effect NMSA 1978, 40-4-7 (1901, as amended through 1993) has on the district courts original jurisdiction. For the reasons explained below, we conclude that the parties agreement to provide for post-minority support is enforceable. We reverse and remand the decision of the district court, concluding that it can enforce the contested provision in contract.
