Rule 3.209. Suspension of Enforcement and Dismissal
Amended January 28, 2026 (current)
(A) Suspension of Enforcement.
(1) Because of a reconciliation or for any other reason, a party may file a motion to suspend the automatic enforcement of a support obligation by the friend of the court. Such a motion may be filed before or after the entry of a judgment.
(2) A support obligation cannot be suspended except by court order.
(B) Dismissal. Unless the order of dismissal specifies otherwise, dismissal of an action under MCR 2.502 or MCR 2.504 cancels past-due child support, except for that owed to the State of Michigan.
