Here, because appellant stipulated to paying support until the child was emancipated under Minn. Stat. 2, lacks an upper age limit on persons who can be deemed children if, as here, the person is incapable of self-support, appellant functionally stipulated to paying support for son indefinitely. The ALJ did not abuse her discretion by holding appellant to his stipulation. Retired judge of the district court, serving as judge of the Minnesota Court of Appeals by appointment pursuant to Minn. Const. Appellant also cites an unpublished opinion to support his argument.
Unpublished opinions are of limited value in deciding an appeal.
Additionally, when son reaches age 22, he will receive a lump sum payment and additional lump sums every five years thereafter.
