In the state of Utah, conservatorship is a legal arrangement in which a judge appoints a responsible adult to care for another adult who cannot fully manage their affairs and finances.

It's a parent's legal duty to financially support their minor children. When parents separate, the noncustodial parent pays the custodial parent child support to help cover the expenses it takes to raise a child, like healthcare costs, food, clothing, and more. In Utah, child support continues until the child turns 18 or graduates from high school, whichever happens later. In cases where the child is disabled and dependent on their parents, the court may order child support to continue into adulthood.
