The court reduced child support for an adult disabled child to $250 per month from January 1, 2022, but left spousal support unchanged.
Child support was increased to reflect the respondent’s higher income, but spousal support was left unchanged. Retroactivity to January 2016 was rejected.
Appellate court found reversible error in the motion judge's child support calculations (failure to adjust table amounts for increased income, incorrect one-child computation, excessive credit for child contribution and double-counting), and error in failing to increase spousal support post-child-support under the SSAG crossover; remitted corrected monetary adjustments: Ms. Holman to pay Mr. Holman $36,646 (child support overpayment) and Mr. Holman to pay Ms. Holman $11,204 (spousal underpayment); the termination of spousal support was not a reversible error on the record.
Source excerpt
In a long-term family law dispute, the court awarded the defendant spousal support, imputed income to both parties, declined retroactive backdating, and ordered each party to bear its own costs.
The court declined to vary spousal support from $2,200 per month, finding the plaintiff’s employment expenses were not proved with precision and did not justify a reduction.
Both cross-appeals in this interim spousal support case were dismissed. The court upheld the master’s income findings and support order, despite an error in describing equalized disposable income.
