This motion to change a divorce order addressed child support and special expenses.
The respondent (payor) sought a retroactive reduction in child support due to decreased income and a change in special expense contributions.
The applicant (recipient) sought a retroactive increase in child support and contributions to various special expenses.
The court found a material change in circumstances for child support, imputing income to the payor for one year of underemployment, and retroactively adjusted support from January 1, 2019.
The payor's request to change life insurance was dismissed.
For special expenses, the court largely upheld the original order's requirement for consultation and agreement, finding the payor liable for childcare and school uniforms where consultation occurred or was unreasonably withheld, but denying other claims where the recipient failed to consult.
