Who is responsible for a child's maintenance after divorce?

Family Law

Both parents continue to have legal responsibilities toward their child after divorce. Section 114 requires parents jointly to care for a minor and provide, according to their financial ability, for maintenance, health care, education and other necessary needs.

Divorce does not terminate the child's legal rights against either parent.
