2 sentences

2019Unlike the former spouse in cases like McClendon and McCarthy, the mother “did not file in the trial court a motion for new trial [in connection with the present modification action] that did not raise the trial court’s failure to comply with the findings requirement, and then attempt to raise the issue for the first time in this Court.” Wallace, 296 Ga. at 310 (1), n. 2 (distinguishing McCarthy). 28 should be granted based on special expenses incurred for child-rearing, including costs incurred for the children’s extracurricular expenses.

2019We note that several months after McCarthy was decided, our Supreme Court refused to find waiver in Wallace v. Wallace, 296 Ga. 307 ( 766 SE2d 452 ) (2014), stating that “unlike the appellant in McCarthy, the [appellant in Wallace] did not file in the trial court a motion for new trial that did not raise the trial court’s failure to comply with the findings requirement, and then attempt to raise the issue for this first time [on appeal].” Id. at 310 (1), n.2.
