• Jurisdiction: Indiana
• Title 20: EDUCATION
• Art. 26: SCHOOL CORPORATIONS: GENERAL
• Ch. 11: Legal Settlement and Transfer of Students; Transfer

Text

As used in this chapter with respect to legal
settlement, transfers, and the payment of tuition, the words "residence",
"resides", or other comparable language means a permanent and
principal habitation that an individual uses for a home for a fixed or
indefinite period, at which the individual remains when not called
elsewhere for work, studies, recreation, or other temporary or special
purpose. These terms are not synonymous with legal domicile. Except
as provided in section 2(a)(3) of this chapter, where a court order
grants an individual custody of a student, the residence of the student
is where that individual resides.
