The appellant appealed an order dismissing his motion to terminate child support and rescind or reduce arrears fixed at $39,782.72.
The appellant argued the application judge erred in interpreting section 17 of the Divorce Act and failed to weigh his health problems and competing obligations.
The Court of Appeal found no error, noting the appellant's long-standing failure to pay support, his ability to work despite health issues, and his complete lack of contact with the child.
The appeal was dismissed with costs awarded to the respondent.
