The appellant father appealed from an order striking his pleadings in a motion to change child support.
The parties had previously settled all issues arising from their marriage breakdown, with the father's income deemed at $120,000 per year and agreeing to contribute $1,000 monthly toward section 7 expenses for five years.
After the five-year term ended, the father ceased payments.
The mother initiated a motion to change seeking continued section 7 contributions.
The father opposed and sought a refund of approximately $66,000.
The motion judge struck the father's pleadings after he failed to comply with undertakings to provide proof of the source of approximately $1,169,000 in deposits, despite being requested to do so on five occasions and receiving clear directions on compliance.
The appeal was dismissed.
