It is no secret that it’s dangerous to use a cell phone or handheld device while driving. But now it is also a summary offense punishable by a fine of $50. On June 5, 2024, Pennsylvania’s Governor signed Senate Bill 37 into law, which became effective on June 5, 2025. The law, also known as Paul Miller’s Law, is named in memory of Paul Miller, Jr., who was killed in a tragic accident with a tractor trailer in 2010 as a result of a distracted driver who reached for his phone while driving.

What You Need to Know About Child Support for Disabled Adult Children in Pennsylvania


By: Robert B. George, Esq.

rgeorge@dioriosereni.com


Date: June 25, 2025


Pursuant to the applicable laws in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the obligation for child support generally ends upon what is commonly known as “emancipation”, which is when a child turns 18 or has graduated from high school, whichever comes later.


However, if a child has a physical or mental disability that prevents him/her from being able to support him/herself, the obligation for support can continue beyond 18, sometimes indefinitely. Emancipation can also terminate child support, even for a child with a disability, if they become self-sufficient or self-supporting through marriage, military service, or court-declared emancipation.
