S.P. v. H.B.

The stay is refused because, although the appeal raises a non-frivolous issue, SP failed to establish irreparable harm or inability to repay any overpayment; the trial judge’s imputation of income was within judicial discretion given SP’s non-disclosure and reliance on available corporate records; and the balance of inconvenience, weighed against the paramount interests of the children who primarily reside with HB, favors denying the stay.

Johnson v. Downey

The father proved an undue hardship circumstance (support for other children) and the court concluded his household standard of living is lower than the mother's; accordingly the court deviated from the table amount and fixed monthly support at $297.50 (including $50 to arrears) so the father's spending on this child equals his spending on his other children; the court declined to order additional contributions to health and extracurricular expenses as the amounts were not reasonable given the father's means but ordered enrollment in workplace health/dental insurance.
