A judgment of disavowal terminates existing child custody and visitation orders in favor of the husband or former husband. The judgment also terminates the obligation to pay child support and revokes any court order enforcing that obligation. However, it does not affect any child support payment or arrearages paid, due, or owing prior to the date the disavowal action was filed.
