Parental leave not considered valid reason to convert child support into maintenance assistance under Act 21 §.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Administrative Court dismissed the applicant's request to convert child support into maintenance assistance, ruling that parental leave was not a valid ground under the Act on Maintenance Assistance. The applicant argued that taking parental leave justified the conversion, but the court found no statutory basis for this exception. Consequently, the obligation to pay child support remained unchanged despite the parent's absence due to leave.
