Health coverage through PeachCare for Kids Program and Medicaid shall not prevent a court from ordering either or both parents to obtain other health insurance."; deleted "the" preceding "uninsured health care" three times in subparagraph (h)(3)(A); in subparagraph (i)(1)(A), deleted "primary" following "child support," in the second sentence, and added "as well as a noncustodial parent's ability or inability to pay the presumptive amount of child support" at the end of the third sentence; in division (i)(2)(B)(iii), inserted "the noncustodial parent's basic subsistence needs and", inserted "of his or her", and deleted "of the noncustodial parent" following "reasonable expenses"; in subparagraph (i)(2)(J), in the third sentence, substituted "such expense" for "the expense" and deleted "calculation of the" following "considered in the"; and inserted "becomes incarcerated," in the middle of the first sentence of paragraph (j)(1).

- Ga. L. 1979, p. 466, § 12 amended the prior version of this Code section to provide that either parent may be liable for child support. Cases decided prior to the 1979 enactment appear to remain valid except insofar as they may imply that the father only may be liable for such support.
Ga. L. 1995, p. 603, § 4, not codified by the General Assembly, provides that it is the intention of Sections 1 and 2 of that Act to encourage judges in divorce cases to require all couples involved in contested divorces to go to mediation to attempt a mutually agreeable settlement.
Ga. L. 2005, p. 224, § 1/HB 221, not codified by the General Assembly, provides that: "The General Assembly finds and declares that it is important to assess periodically child support guidelines and determine whether existing guidelines continue to be viable and effective or whether they have failed or ceased to accomplish their original policy objectives. The General Assembly further finds that supporting Georgia's children is vitally important to the citizens of Georgia. Therefore, the General Assembly has determined that it is in the best interests of the state and its citizenry to undertake an evaluation of the child support guidelines on a continuing basis. The General Assembly declares that it is important that all of Georgia's children are provided with adequate financial support whether the children's parents are living together or not living together. The General Assembly finds that both parents have a continuing obligation with respect to providing financial and emotional stability for their child or children. It is the hope of the members of the General Assembly that all parents work together to advance the best interest of their children."
Ga. L. 2006, p. 583, § 10(b)/SB 382, not codified by the General Assembly, provides: "Sections 1 through 7 of this Act shall become effective on January 1, 2007, and shall apply to all pending civil actions on or after January 1, 2007."

Purpose of statute was to relieve father of common-law liability to support minor children, and substitute therefor a liability by virtue of a court decree. Thomas v. Holt, 209 Ga. 133, 70 S.E.2d 595 (1952); Booker v. Booker, 219 Ga. 358, 133 S.E.2d 353 (1963).
Purpose of statute was to substitute for a father's common-law liability to support his children a liability by virtue of a court decree, whereby he is required to contribute a specified amount at fixed intervals. Clark v. Clark, 228 Ga. 838, 188 S.E.2d 487 (1972); Newsome v. Newsome, 237 Ga. 221, 227 S.E.2d 347 (1976).
- Statutory child support guidelines under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 were not unconstitutionally violative of the constitutional guarantees of due process, equal protection, and privacy, when inherent classifications and distinctions therein were required in order to ensure fairness and equity between the parents and that the welfare of the children were protected; a rational basis existed to ensure that adequate support was provided for Georgia's children whose parents have divorced or separated. Ga. Dep't of Human Res. v. Sweat, 276 Ga. 627, 580 S.E.2d 206, cert. denied, 540 U.S. 966, 124 S. Ct. 432, 157 L. Ed. 2d 310 (2003).
O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 is not unconstitutional under the Supremacy Clause. Ward v. McFall, 277 Ga. 649, 593 S.E.2d 340, cert. denied, 543 U.S. 818, 125 S. Ct. 57, 160 L. Ed. 2d 26 (2004).
- Plain language of subsection (f) of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 precludes a divorce decree entered before July 1, 1992, from being modified under subsections (e) and (f). Honey v. Honey, 263 Ga. 722, 438 S.E.2d 87 (1994).
Plain language of subsection (f) of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 itself precludes a divorce decree intended before July 1, 1992, from being modified under subsections (e) and (f). Cote v. Waldrop, 263 Ga. 752, 438 S.E.2d 630 (1994).
- Trial court's nunc pro tunc order, referencing the court's original order dated before the effective date of the 2005 amendment to O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15, was held to have not actually applied to the amended statute as the appellant failed to show otherwise through evidence contained in the record on appeal. Sebby v. Costo, 290 Ga. App. 61, 658 S.E.2d 830 (2008).
§ 19-6-19(a). - In an action to modify child support, the computational reference of subsection (b) of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 may be applied only after the finder of fact first finds that the requirements of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-19(a) have been satisfied. Willingham v. Willingham, 216 Ga. 674, 410 S.E.2d 98 (1991).
Construction with O.C.G.A. § 19-5-12. - Although a spouse alleged on appeal that a motion to set aside that portion of the divorce decree which dealt with the issue of child support, which incorporated the parties' settlement agreement, was properly granted because the decree failed to set forth a specific baseline dollar amount for child support, as required by O.C.G.A. § 19-5-12, the decree contained stated dollar amounts which could be considered baseline payments; hence, pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 as applicable at the time, the trial court properly found that the spouse was liable for paying child support for two children in the range of 23 to 28 percent of the spouse's gross income. Scott v. Scott, 282 Ga. 36, 644 S.E.2d 842 (2007).
- Statutory framework for establishing child support obligations is set forth in O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15, and paragraph (k)(1) provides that a parent may seek a modification of a prior child support decision when there is a substantial change in either parent's income and financial status or the needs of the child. Stoddard v. Meyer, 291 Ga. 739, 732 S.E.2d 439 (2012).
O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(4)(B), which applied only in child support modification actions, was intended to be permissive, rather than mandatory, in nature, thus, if the conditions precedent were satisfied the trial court could, but was not required to, use the prescribed formula as a proxy for missing evidence regarding a parent's income. Jackson v. Sanders, 299 Ga. 332, 788 S.E.2d 387 (2016).
- Guidelines for computing the amount of child support found in O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(b) and (c), known as the "Child Support Guidelines," are the expression of the legislative will regarding the calculation of child support and must be considered by any court setting the child support. Pruitt v. Lindsey, 261 Ga. 540, 407 S.E.2d 750 (1991).
- Trial court abused the court's discretion in calculating child support without determining the mother's gross income. Gordy v. Gordy, 246 Ga. App. 802, 542 S.E.2d 536 (2000).
While the trial court's failure to identify every fact that could qualify as a special circumstance under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c) was not error per se: (1) the court failed to actually consider whether ordering a parent to pay 20 percent of that parent's gross income each month was excessive when coupled with other financial obligations under the order; (2) no evidence existed as to the actual future costs of the parent's additional financial obligations under the order, nor did the court place any limitations on how much the parent would be required to pay toward these expenses; and (3) the court made no written findings as to whether the parent had the financial resources to pay these obligations in addition to the child support obligation. Hence, the court's order was vacated, and the matter was remanded for the trial court to make an express determination of whether the parent's presumptive child support amount was excessive under the circumstances presented, and, if so, to reduce the presumptive amount accordingly. Weil v. Paseka, 282 Ga. App. 403, 638 S.E.2d 833 (2006).
O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c)(6) does not limit the support obligations to current obligations to minor children. Betty v. Betty, 274 Ga. 194, 552 S.E.2d 846 (2001).
Under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c)(6), a trial court was permitted to deviate from the child support guidelines set forth under § 19-6-15(b) if a trial court found that a party's support obligations to another household made the presumptive amount of support either excessive or inadequate; the mere fact of additional children did not justify a reduction in the guideline range. Betty v. Betty, 274 Ga. 194, 552 S.E.2d 846 (2001).
- Trial court did not err in ordering a husband to pay his entire child support obligation for the next 13 years in a single payment because nothing in the child support guidelines statute, O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15, expressly precluded lump-sum child support awards; the statute as amended explicitly authorizes trial courts to exercise discretion in setting the manner and timing of payment, and the language of § 19-6-15(c)(2)(B), which requires trial courts to specify in what manner, how often, to whom, and until when the support shall be paid is certainly broad enough to encompass an order to pay a child support obligation all at once. Mullin v. Roy, 287 Ga. 810, 700 S.E.2d 370 (2010).
- Consideration of the existence of a second child in calculating the level-of-support payment was proper, although the order was for only one child, the subject of a paternity suit, in which suit the other child was not involved; the legislature intended that the trial courts would consider the totality of the circumstances in setting the level of support, and not be bound by the recommended guidelines. Batterson v. Groves, 204 Ga. App. 52, 418 S.E.2d 373, cert. denied, 204 Ga. App. 921, 418 S.E.2d 373 (1992).
- It would not be improper to use the guidelines for computation of a child support award in civil proceedings as a condition in a criminal abandonment action since the child support award is neither a part of the sentence nor a punishment. Vogel v. State, 196 Ga. App. 514, 396 S.E.2d 262 (1990).
- Georgia General Assembly has not specified that only noncustodial parents are to pay child support. Williamson v. Williamson, 293 Ga. 721, 748 S.E.2d 679 (2013).
Legislature did not specify that only noncustodial parents are to pay child support. James v. James, 246 Ga. 233, 271 S.E.2d 151 (1980).
- Trial court's express finding about the father's income at the time the father and mother divorced should have been used to determine whether the father's income had changed significantly in the five years between entry of the parties' divorce decree and the mother's filing of a petition to modify the father's child support obligation; thus, the trial court erred by not using that express finding, but instead using the father's tax returns that showed the father earned significantly more income around the time the divorce decree was entered than was reflected in the divorce decree's finding. Hulett v. Sutherland, 276 Ga. 596, 581 S.E.2d 11 (2003).
By law, father was responsible for support of his minor children and this may include providing for their education. Collins v. Collins, 231 Ga. 683, 203 S.E.2d 524 (1974).
There is no legal requirement that father support his children once they reach majority. Newton v. Newton, 222 Ga. 175, 149 S.E.2d 128 (1966) (decided prior to the 1992 amendment, which added subsections (e) and (f)).
Requirement to provide support beyond age of majority may not, as matter of law, be imposed. Clavin v. Clavin, 238 Ga. 421, 233 S.E.2d 151 (1977); Coleman v. Coleman, 240 Ga. 417, 240 S.E.2d 870 (1977) (decided prior to the 1992 amendment, which added subsections (e) and (f)).
- To the extent that Adame v. Herndandez, 327 Ga. App. 869 (2014) holds that the trial court must support with written findings the court's exercise of discretion and consideration of the best interest of the child for whom child support is being awarded when applying a theoretical child support order under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(5)(C), that decision is hereby overruled. Neal v. Hibbard, 296 Ga. 882, 770 S.E.2d 600 (2015).
Children are entitled to be supported commensurate with their proven customary needs and the father's financial ability to provide for them. Clavin v. Clavin, 238 Ga. 421, 233 S.E.2d 151 (1977).
Father cannot provide bare subsistence existence for his children and consider that he has done his duty; his support, as far as he is able, must be appropriate to the children's situation. Clavin v. Clavin, 238 Ga. 421, 233 S.E.2d 151 (1977).
Father's duty to provide support and maintenance for minor children does not cease with former wife's remarriage. Vereen v. Arp, 237 Ga. 241, 227 S.E.2d 331 (1976).
- Trial court erred in failing to issue an award establishing the defendant's obligation for future child support when by the defendant's failure to file a timely answer, the defendant admitted the allegation in Georgia Department of Human Resources (DHR's) petition that the defendant was obligated to provide for the future support of the defendant's minor child as the defendant's ability permitted. Department of Human Resources v. Hedgepath, 204 Ga. App. 755, 420 S.E.2d 638 (1992).
- Requirement in an order modifying a final judgment and decree of divorce that the former spouses alternate years in paying for their children's clothing, uniforms, school fees, and similar items was not improperly vague and indefinite; the inherent uncertainty of the future expenses of the children did not, at the time of the award, show that the award departed from the statutory guidelines. Facey v. Facey, 281 Ga. 367, 638 S.E.2d 273 (2006).
- Trial court did not err in the amount of the child support obligation that the court bestowed upon the mother when the father was given custody of the children because the mere possibility of the parties' children incurring amounts of uninsured medical expenses and uninsured counseling expenses so as to constitute extraordinary medical costs was not sufficient at that juncture to support a finding that the award of child support departed from the Georgia Child Support Guidelines. Moon v. Moon, 277 Ga. 375, 589 S.E.2d 76 (2003).
- Trial court erred in failing to require the parties to share uninsured medical expenses for the minor child because both parents were required to be responsible for such expenses and the trial court was required to include provisions for payment of such expenses in the court's order. Moore v. McKinney, 335 Ga. App. 855, 783 S.E.2d 373 (2016).
- Trial court did not abuse the court's discretion in requiring a husband to pay the entire cost of the child's medical insurance and uncovered medical expenses because the child support worksheet incorporated into the trial court's order clearly showed that an adjustment to the presumptive amounts of child support had been made to account for the expense of the premiums for the child's insurance coverage; in accordance with O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(h)(2)(A), and using the wife's pro rata share of the parties' combined income, 26 percent of the amount of the health insurance premium had been deducted from the husband's basic child support obligation and added to the wife's obligation. Simmons v. Simmons, 288 Ga. 670, 706 S.E.2d 456 (2011).
- Trial court did not abuse the court's discretion in ordering the husband to reimburse the wife up to $250 per month for work-related childcare expenses instead of allowing the husband to watch the children because the parties' younger child was diagnosed with high-functioning autism and needed some special care; a few times when the younger child was solely in the husband's care, the child wandered off and was left alone in situations where the child could have been hurt; and the wife testified that the children's daycare provided the special care, attention, and consistency the younger child needed while allowing the younger child to stay in the company of the older brother who had a calming effect on the younger child. Sahibzada v. Sahibzada, 294 Ga. 783, 757 S.E.2d 51 (2014).
- Court upheld an increase in child support owed by a mother, finding that the costs of a nanny were reasonable work-related child care expenses for the father, although he worked from home, considering the young age of the children, that the costs of a nanny were small in comparison to the father's monthly income, and the nanny's qualifications. Taylor v. Taylor, 293 Ga. 615, 748 S.E.2d 873 (2013).
- Guidelines for child support established by O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 provide the best means of estimating the amount of support a child born out of wedlock had a reasonable expectation of receiving from the child's deceased father. In re Adventure Bound Sports, Inc., 858 F. Supp. 1192 (S.D. Ga. 1994).
Child support is part of alimony, and right to receive alimony ceases upon death of husband unless the decree expressly provides to the contrary. Veal v. Veal, 226 Ga. 285, 174 S.E.2d 435 (1970).
With respect to a divorced father and a child support decree, absent some express, voluntary provision in the decree, the decree will not be enforced after the death of the father. Clavin v. Clavin, 238 Ga. 421, 233 S.E.2d 151 (1977).
In making decisions about child support, trial court is charged with considering child's welfare. James v. James, 246 Ga. 233, 271 S.E.2d 151 (1980).
- When the existence and terms of an agreement between the parties are disputed, and the sufficiency of child support is called into question, the record should reflect the trial court's comparison of need and ability to pay and the record should reflect an award that is consistent with that comparison. Arrington v. Arrington, 261 Ga. 547, 407 S.E.2d 758 (1991).
- Evidence showing that the father had a mechanical engineering degree from the University of Alabama and had recently earned sums in excess of $50,000 per year was sufficient to support the trial court's findings as to earning capacity in lieu of a finding of gross income under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15. Walker v. Walker, 248 Ga. App. 177, 546 S.E.2d 315 (2001).
Earning capacity rather than gross income may be used to determine the amount of child support in certain circumstances, including the absence of any evidence as to actual income. Russ v. Russ, 272 Ga. 438, 530 S.E.2d 469 (2000).
Superior court properly based a child support award on one spouse's earning capacity rather than the income the spouse stated in a financial affidavit when the spouse admitted to making thousands of dollars more than was stated in the affidavit and additional evidence established that the spouse owned a stucco company, that some employees of the company earned more than the income the spouse stated in the affidavit, and that the parties had multiple real estate holdings. Banciu v. Banciu, 282 Ga. 616, 652 S.E.2d 552 (2007).
Trial court did not err in imputing income of $1,100 to a father, although the father was disabled and unemployed; the father represented himself at the trial, could drive, received substantial, unsupervised visitation with his four-year-old daughter, and could obtain family assistance benefits and part-time employment. Larizza v. Larizza, 286 Ga. 461, 689 S.E.2d 306 (2010).
Trial court properly imputed income to the mother when calculating child support because the evidence showed that the mother was making $32,000 and had health insurance available when the mother apparently made the decision to quit a job in Florida and move to Georgia to live with the mother's parents, and there was no evidence that the mother involuntarily left that employment. Caldwell v. Meadows, 312 Ga. App. 70, 717 S.E.2d 668 (2011).
- Because Internal Revenue Service Schedule K-1 income is categorized as self-employment income, O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(1)(B), that income is not subject to the requirements set forth in § 19-6-15(f)(1)(D) for variable income. Simmons v. Simmons, 288 Ga. 670, 706 S.E.2d 456 (2011).
- Trial court did not abuse the court's discretion in concluding that the father had failed to present reliable evidence of the father's gross income and, thus, remand was necessary for the trial court to reassess whether to exercise the court's discretion to apply O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(4)(B), to determine whether to modify the father's child support obligation. Jackson v. Sanders, 299 Ga. 332, 788 S.E.2d 387 (2016).
- Trial court properly found that the term "gross income" in the parties' divorce settlement agreement was ambiguous, and, in construing the agreement against the father as the obligor, that the parties intended for child support to be based on Georgia's Child Support Guidelines, and that, by assigning earned income to the father's professional corporation, thereby substantially understating the father's gross income, the father wilfully violated the conditions of the settlement agreement; the father's "gross income" significantly exceeded Form W-2 wages, and the father's computation of child support based only on the father's Form W-2 salary created a child support deficiency. Pate v. Pate, 280 Ga. 796, 631 S.E.2d 103 (2006).
- Trial court did not err by imputing income of $4,180 per month to a father in addition to the $1,320 in monthly unemployment benefits received based on evaluating the reasonableness of the father's occupational choices, the father's past employment, current assets, current monthly receipts, and self-imposed salary restrictions regarding a job search, which supported a finding that the father was willfully unemployed or underemployed under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(4)(D). Friday v. Friday, 294 Ga. 687, 755 S.E.2d 707 (2014).
When considering wilful unemployment or underemployment under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(4)(D), the statute does not require a trial court to make written findings as to why it decided to impute income to a spouse. Friday v. Friday, 294 Ga. 687, 755 S.E.2d 707 (2014).
- In modifying a father's child support obligation, the court did not err by imputing income as the court was authorized to consider not only the father's income of record, but also the assets owned, which showed that the father owned four real properties, that the law office practice had declined, a car purchase was made with an attendant monthly payment of $2,036.00, and $2,500.00 per month was being paid in rent, and it was proven that monthly income was understated by more than $10,000 in prior years. Neal v. Hibbard, 296 Ga. 882, 770 S.E.2d 600 (2015).
- Without some evidence of the amount of regular, ongoing gift income to the father, attributing to him a monthly lump-sum gift income of $3,000 was not supported by the record. Dodson v. Walraven, 318 Ga. App. 586, 734 S.E.2d 428 (2012).
- Determination that there had been a substantial change in the husband's income was not an abuse of discretion as the husband was employed in the mortgage industry, which had been unstable, downsizing, and affected by the recession, and while the husband earned $48,000, rather than the $75,000 imputed to the husband at the time of the divorce, the trial court imputed income of $52,500 to the husband because the husband accepted a lower base salary in exchange for the chance of advancement. Strunk v. Strunk, 294 Ga. 280, 749 S.E.2d 701 (2013).
- In a child support case, the trial court properly included only $702 of the military father's $3,555 basic allowance for housing (BAH) in calculating the father's gross income because the difference was based on the father's deployment to Bahrain, and under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(1)(E)(iv), BAH was to include only so much of the allowance that was not attributable to area variable housing costs. Wallace v. Wallace, 296 Ga. 307, 766 S.E.2d 452 (2014).
- When a mother sought to increase the father's child support under earlier provisions of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-19(a) based on his increased income, the trial court properly included capital gains realized by reselling real property in the father's gross income; earlier provisions of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 stated that gross income included "all other income" except for public assistance, and 26 U.S.C. § 61(a)(3) included "gains derived from dealings in property" in gross income. Sharpe v. Perkins, 284 Ga. App. 376, 644 S.E.2d 178 (2007), cert. denied, No. S07C1123, 2007 Ga. LEXIS 509 (Ga. 2007).
- In a divorce case when the wife was awarded child support, the trial court did not abuse the court's discretion in overruling the husband's objection to the wife's questions regarding checks that had been paid to him but that he had not deposited into his bank account. The wife was entitled to inquire whether the deposited and undeposited checks matched the amount of income reported by the husband. Leggette v. Leggette, 284 Ga. 432, 668 S.E.2d 251 (2008).
Trial court abused the court's discretion in calculating a father's gross income for purposes of a child support award because the court considered the gross revenue of a certain company, without accounting for business expenses and other deductions or the fact that the father only owned a one percent share of the company. Harrell v. Ga. Dep't of Human Res., 300 Ga. App. 497, 685 S.E.2d 441 (2009).
It is within judge's discretion to whom child support shall be paid. Mathews v. Mathews, 123 Ga. App. 81, 179 S.E.2d 547 (1970).
Trial court may properly order custodial parent to pay for support of minor children while visiting with the noncustodial parent. James v. James, 246 Ga. 233, 271 S.E.2d 151 (1980).
Trial court is not bound by an agreement between the parties regarding child support, nor is the court's obligation satisfied by simply adopting the agreement. The court is obligated to consider whether such support is sufficient based on the children's needs, and the parent's ability to pay. Arrington v. Arrington, 261 Ga. 547, 407 S.E.2d 758 (1991).
- Contractual agreement for modification providing for child support payments that exceed the statutory guidelines did not contravene O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 or the public policy of the state. Kendrick v. Childers, 267 Ga. 98, 475 S.E.2d 604 (1996).
- Evidence supported the presence of special circumstances that provided sufficient justification for the court's reduction of the mother's child support obligation below the minimum percentage in the guidelines. Walker v. Walker, 248 Ga. App. 177, 546 S.E.2d 315 (2001).
- Even though under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(b)(5), the range of percentages of gross income to be considered for child support was 17 percent to 23 percent, the jury's award of periodic child support in the amount of approximately 40 percent of the father's gross income was proper and was affirmed because the jury found that this upward variation from the percentage table was justified by the fact that the mother had no income, and found that the father's ability to pay the amount ordered as permanent child support was shown by the fact that the father had been paying the same amount as temporary child support and alimony. Ward v. Ward, 268 Ga. App. 394, 601 S.E.2d 851 (2004).
Because the jury was presented with sufficient evidence via a husband's deposition and trial testimony supporting the jury's determination of the husband's monthly gross income, which included income from two landscaping businesses and a salary from the sheriff's department, which in turn supported a finding of special circumstances warranting an upward modification of child support, the husband was not entitled to a new trial. Dyals v. Dyals, 281 Ga. 894, 644 S.E.2d 138 (2007).
Superior court did not abuse the court's discretion when the court deviated from the child support guidelines in former O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(b) based on the specific finding that special circumstances existed in that one spouse's gross income was approximately $90,000 per year while the other spouse had an income of only $325 per month, and the parties were sharing custody of their three children. Banciu v. Banciu, 282 Ga. 616, 652 S.E.2d 552 (2007).
- Based on the applicable version of the revised child support guidelines under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15, the trial court properly exercised the court's discretion when the court imposed the presumptive amount of child support on a wife without applying a discretionary deviation under § 19-6-15(c)(2)(E) and (i)(1)(B); since no deviation was made, there was no requirement that an explanation be given of how that decision was reached. Rumley-Miawama v. Miawama, 284 Ga. 811, 671 S.E.2d 827 (2009).
Trial court's findings supporting the court's child support and alimony awards were proper because the trial court considered, inter alia, the husband's personal expenses paid by the husband's companies and the husband's loan application and financial affidavit in arriving at the court's determination of the husband's income; additionally, the trial court took into account the wife's status as a stay-at-home mother since the birth of the parties' son, the husband's conduct towards the wife, and the wife's potential income from the trial court's award to the wife of one of the husband's companies. The evidence also supported the trial court's finding that no deviation from the presumptive child support award was warranted under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(i) based on the alimony award. Walton v. Walton, 285 Ga. 706, 681 S.E.2d 165 (2009).
Trial court did not abuse the court's discretion in declining to make a deviation to the presumptive amount of child support because under O.C.G.A. § 19-6- 15(c)(2)(E)(iii) the trial court stated that the court did not find that the presumptive amount of child support was excessive or inadequate, or that it was unjust or inappropriate under the circumstances and also did not find that a downward deviation in the husband's support amount would be in the child's best interests; in order to grant any deviation, the trial court must find that the application of the presumptive amount of child support would be unjust or inappropriate and that the best interest of the child for whom support is being determined will be served by deviation from the presumptive amount of child support under § 19-6- 15(c)(2)(E)(iii). Willis v. Willis, 288 Ga. 577, 707 S.E.2d 344 (2010).
In a mother's paternity suit to establish the legitimation, custody, and support of her minor child by the father who worked as an NFL football player, the trial court did not err in failing to allow for a high income deviation under O.C.G.A. § 19-6- 15(i)(2)(A). The trial court considered the fact that the combined adjusted income of the parents exceeded $30,000 per month by $1,261.50, but exercised the court's discretion not to provide for a high income deviation. Jackson v. Irvin, 316 Ga. App. 560, 730 S.E.2d 48 (2012).
For purposes of the child support award, the juvenile court did not abuse the court's discretion in refusing to award the mother a deviation for the mother's visitation-related travel expenses because, although the parties had previously agreed to a deviation for travel expenses, which was incorporated into an earlier child support order, the juvenile court was not bound by the earlier consent order; and, furthermore, the mother's failure to cite in the mother's appellate brief to any legal authority supporting the mother's position was fatal to that claim of error. Noble v. Noble, 345 Ga. App. 799, 815 S.E.2d 150 (2018).
- Trial court did not abuse the court's discretion by declining to consider the cost of the life insurance in calculating the parent's child support obligation because the evidence indicated that a parent's company, rather than the parent, paid the premiums on the parent's life insurance policies. Simmons v. Simmons, 288 Ga. 670, 706 S.E.2d 456 (2011).
- Trial court erred by incorrectly starting with the father's presumptive amount of child support and incorrectly applying a parenting time deviation available only to the noncustodial parent under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(b)(1)-(7) when the court ordered the father to pay the noncustodial mother child support per month. Williamson v. Williamson, 293 Ga. 721, 748 S.E.2d 679 (2013).
- Former spouse's gross income was incorrectly calculated under O.C.G.A. § 19-6- 15(f)(2)(A) for the purposes of determining the spouse's child support obligation because the spouse's gross income included monthly child support received for a child from a previous marriage. Hammond v. Hammond, 282 Ga. 456, 651 S.E.2d 95 (2007).
- When that part of the verdict which made an allowance for the support of the defendant's minor children has the approval of the trial judge, the Supreme Court has no right to disturb it on the ground of excessiveness when its reasonableness as to the amount awarded has some support in the evidence. Hubbard v. Hubbard, 214 Ga. 294, 104 S.E.2d 451 (1958).
It is presumed that judgment for child support is based on sufficient evidence. Nichols v. Nichols, 209 Ga. 811, 76 S.E.2d 400 (1953).
- When the petition for divorce and alimony lists the names and ages of the minor children, and the verdict and decree awarding alimony states definitely how much alimony is to be paid each month for each child until the child attained the age of 18 years, it is not necessary that the verdict and decree should restate the names and ages of the children; and certainly such objection to the verdict and decree cannot be raised for the first time in defense of a proceeding for contempt of court for failure to pay the alimony decreed. Kirby v. Johnson, 188 Ga. 49, 2 S.E.2d 640 (1939).
When award is to group as family unit, Supreme Court could not attempt to separate amounts awarded to the mother from the amounts awarded to the children. Blalock v. Blalock, 214 Ga. 586, 105 S.E.2d 721 (1958).
Consent judgments have been uniformly recognized in this state, and have been given the same force and effect as judgments rendered in due course of litigation upon findings by a jury. Estes v. Estes, 192 Ga. 94, 14 S.E.2d 681 (1941).
- Trial courts, in determining whether to incorporate a marital settlement agreement into a final verdict or divorce decree, are required to make specific written findings as to the gross income of the husband and the wife, and the presence or absence of special circumstances justifying a departure from the percentages set out in the child support guidelines; however, a parties' marital settlement agreement called for the wife not to pay child support, and, instead, have her receive a lesser amount of alimony in lieu of paying child support as the right to child support belonged to the child and could not be waived by agreement of the parents. Swanson v. Swanson, 276 Ga. 566, 580 S.E.2d 526 (2003).
- Pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(3)(A), a noncustodial parent was entitled to a credit against that parent's child support obligation for social security retirement benefits which became payable to the parent's dependent children following the execution of a settlement agreement as the parent earned the benefits and the agreement did not evidence a contrary intent; thus, the trial court erred in finding otherwise. Scarborough v. Scarborough, 282 Ga. 427, 651 S.E.2d 42 (2007).
Parents cannot by subsequent voluntary settlement nullify or modify final decree so as to deprive the child of the support to which the child is entitled by the verdict and decree. Glaze v. Strength, 186 Ga. 613, 198 S.E. 721 (1938); Hardy v. Pennington, 187 Ga. 523, 1 S.E.2d 667 (1939); Corriher v. McElroy, 209 Ga. 885, 76 S.E.2d 782 (1953).
- Guideline percentage is to be computed on the basis of the number of children for whom support is being determined in a particular case and, after that calculation is made, the final award can be adjusted on the basis of other children to whom the obligor owes support. Ehlers v. Ehlers, 264 Ga. 668, 449 S.E.2d 840 (1994); Hoodenpyl v. Reason, 268 Ga. 10, 485 S.E.2d 750 (1997).
Husband was entitled to a credit as a result of a child born to the husband and the husband's new wife. Strunk v. Strunk, 294 Ga. 280, 749 S.E.2d 701 (2013).
Social security disability payments received for benefit of children should be credited toward the father's obligation under an alimony decree. Perteet v. Summer, 246 Ga. 182, 269 S.E.2d 453 (1980).
- Because a lump settlement of a workers' compensation claim is primarily for future lost wages, it is within the scope of gross income and should be considered in calculating the child support obligation. Cromer v. Denmark, 273 Ga. 290, 540 S.E.2d 183 (2001).
Husband failed to establish that a trial court abused the court's discretion in awarding child support to his wife because in the court's order and attached schedules, the trial court made all of the specific written findings required by O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15, and the final decree gave the husband substantial, unsupervised visitation with his child, which was inconsistent with the husband's claims of a disability so severe as to render him utterly incapable of part-time employment. Larizza v. Larizza, 286 Ga. 461, 689 S.E.2d 306 (2010).
Trust fund established in decree is to be paid during a child's minority. Use contemplated which clearly extends beyond the age of 18 is an attempt to circumvent the statutory limitations on the duty to support and is void and unenforceable. Coleman v. Coleman, 240 Ga. 417, 240 S.E.2d 870 (1977).
Award of alimony to child of full amount of husband's earning capacity is excessive. Johnson v. Johnson, 131 Ga. 606, 62 S.E. 1044 (1908).
Trial court's award excessive based on exaggerated determination of spouse's earning capacity. Duncan v. Duncan, 262 Ga. 872, 426 S.E.2d 857 (1993).
Husband's responsibility for support did not extend to awarding title to property. He was not required to settle an estate upon his children. Clark v. Clark, 228 Ga. 838, 188 S.E.2d 487 (1972).
- O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(h)(3) did not entitle a former spouse to collect an alleged debt for health care and extracurricular activity expenses of the parties' children through garnishment of the other spouse's wages without first reducing the alleged debt to a judgment. The amounts allegedly due for these expenses could not be computed from the terms of the divorce decree but required reference to evidence of specific expenditures and reimbursements. Stoker v. Severin, 292 Ga. App. 870, 665 S.E.2d 913 (2008).
- Agreement whereby one parent was obliged to pay to the other a fixed sum per month for the maintenance and support of minor children, continuing each month thereafter until the children reach majority, or die, or marry before the age, provides for a lump sum payment rather than an allocation for each child which would be reduced as each child became emancipated. Martin v. Martin, 254 Ga. 376, 329 S.E.2d 503 (1985).
- Provision in both the jury verdict and the final judgment requiring the husband to provide a home for his children is in the nature of child support. Scherberger v. Scherberger, 260 Ga. 635, 398 S.E.2d 363 (1990).
- Trial court properly excluded a husband's fringe benefits, including the husband's employer's contributions for life insurance, medical insurance, and a retirement plan, in calculating the husband's gross income for the purpose of determining a child support obligation because the benefits were not part of the husband's gross income for income tax purposes, and were not for daily personal living expenses; the decision was consistent with the 2005 amendment to O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15, which has a delayed effective date of July 1, 2006. Hayes v. Hayes, 279 Ga. 741, 620 S.E.2d 806 (2005).
- Trial court did not improperly include in a husband's gross income a company's payment on the loan for the husband's company-owned truck, the company's coverage of vehicle expenses, including gas, tags, insurance and repairs, the company's payment for the husband's cell phone, and the husband's use of a company-issued credit card because those benefits were properly considered fringe benefits and included in gross income under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(1)(C) because those payments significantly reduced personal living expenses. Simmons v. Simmons, 288 Ga. 670, 706 S.E.2d 456 (2011).
- Trial court erred in including the cost of housing in the husband's gross income because there was no evidence that the use of the house, owned by the husband's parents, was granted in the course of employment and, thus, it was not a fringe benefit. Scott v. Scott, 297 Ga. 775, 778 S.E.2d 230 (2015).
- Trial court properly included the cost of the husband's cellular telephone as a fringe benefit as the business paid for the phone and it significantly reduced the husband's personal expenses. Scott v. Scott, 297 Ga. 775, 778 S.E.2d 230 (2015).
- There was no error in the trial court's inclusion of the amount of the truck payment and expenses other than fuel in the husband's gross income for purposes of determining child support as the husband was permitted to drive the truck, paid for by the husband's parents' farming business, for personal use. Scott v. Scott, 297 Ga. 775, 778 S.E.2d 230 (2015).
- In calculating child support under earlier requirements of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15, the trial court erred in including as part of the husband's gross income sums he had received from his employer as reimbursement for job-related moving expenses; reimbursement for moving expenses did not improve an obligor's financial position but merely maintained the status quo by offsetting the unusual and often significant costs incurred as part of a job-related move. Padilla v. Padilla, 282 Ga. 273, 646 S.E.2d 672 (2007).
- Trial court erred in failing to include the book royalties a husband received in calculating the husband's gross income for the purpose of determining a child support obligation because O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(b)(2) required that the trial court include compensation for personal services and all other income when calculating a party's obligation for child support. Hayes v. Hayes, 279 Ga. 741, 620 S.E.2d 806 (2005).
- Trial court did not erroneously count a husband's income twice by awarding portions of his business in the child support awards and again in the property division as "business alimony". Under both capitalization methods, the wife's expert deducted a reasonable salary expense for the husband. With the separate bases for the alimony award and the property division clearly acknowledged before the court, there was no double dipping. Miller v. Miller, 288 Ga. 274, 705 S.E.2d 839 (2010).
- O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(b)(1) and (2) do not address economic in-kind benefits and thus do not require the inclusion of such benefits in gross income; O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(b)(4), however, does specifically address such benefits and provides only that those benefits may be included in calculating the obligor's gross monthly income. Hayes v. Hayes, 279 Ga. 741, 620 S.E.2d 806 (2005).
- Trial court erred in adjusting the parent's gross income for a preexisting child support order under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(5)(B) as no such order satisfying the time qualifications of the statute existed. Heintz v. Heintz, 301 Ga. 209, 800 S.E.2d 293 (2017).
- Trial court properly deviated from the child support guidelines under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c) based on the court's finding that the husband earned an average of $1 million per year during the marriage and continued to have the potential to earn this sum; the trial court took into account the income and earning potential of both spouses as well as the historical needs of the children. Bloomfield v. Bloomfield, 282 Ga. 108, 646 S.E.2d 207 (2007).
Trial court erred in denying a wife's motion for a new trial, which argued that a divorce decree contained a deviation from the child support guidelines without including any findings stating why the deviation was appropriate because the separation agreement between the wife and her husband, as well as the trial court's order incorporating that agreement, contained a deviation since there was, at least, an $18 difference in the amount of child support mandated by the child support guidelines and that which was actually being paid by the parties, and the trial court's order contained none of the findings required by O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15; because the parties' separation agreement did not comply with the provisions contained in § 19-6-15 and did not contain findings of fact as required to support a deviation, the trial court should have rejected the agreement. Holloway v. Holloway, 288 Ga. 147, 702 S.E.2d 132 (2010).
In determining a father's child support obligation, the trial court erred in applying a nonspecific deviation from the presumptive amount of child support to account for his support obligations to another child because the current version of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 does not contemplate a specific variance of a child support award based on a party's support obligations to another household. The record failed to show that the father was paying any support for the subsequent child, and his ability to pay all of his child support obligations was a matter of speculation. Jackson v. Irvin, 316 Ga. App. 560, 730 S.E.2d 48 (2012).
- Trial court abused the court's discretion by ordering a deviation for life insurance premiums because the court failed to justify the deviation by setting forth the court's findings; thus, a remand was required on that issue. Black v. Black, 292 Ga. 691, 740 S.E.2d 613 (2013).
Deviation for visitation-related travel expenses was not an abuse of discretion on the part of the trial court because the mother had the option to remain with the children in the marital home for which the father was financially responsible, but chose instead to move to New York and incur unnecessary expenses. Black v. Black, 292 Ga. 691, 740 S.E.2d 613 (2013).
- Trial court erred in applying a deviation from the presumptive amount of child support for extraordinary educational expenses without complying with O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c)(2)(E) as the trial court did not make any findings as to what the presumptive amount would have been or why an application of the guideline would have been unjust or inappropriate. Heintz v. Heintz, 301 Ga. 209, 800 S.E.2d 293 (2017).
- Trial court did not abuse the court's broad discretion in setting the amount of a child support award because nothing in the child support guidelines statute, O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15, mandated that the trial court calculate a discounted present value, and a husband did not propose or provide supporting evidence of a discount rate that better reflected the economic outlook; the trial court recognized the court's discretion to engage in a present value calculation but declined to do so, explaining that the husband failed to show that such a reduction would be appropriate in light of the current economic climate, one in which even the most secure financial investments offer extremely low rates of return. Mullin v. Roy, 287 Ga. 810, 700 S.E.2d 370 (2010).
- Trial court properly set child support at 30 percent of the husband's earnings as under earlier provisions of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(b)(5) the applicable percentage range was 25 to 32 percent, and the trial court clearly applied a correct percentage; the court was not required to reduce the award of child support due to health insurance premiums or to eliminate the insurance requirement. Messaadi v. Messaadi, 282 Ga. 126, 646 S.E.2d 230 (2007).
Trial court erred by ordering a parent to maintain health insurance on the parent's minor child because the court failed to account for the parent's payment of health insurance in calculating the parent's child support obligation. Dupree v. Dupree, 287 Ga. 319, 695 S.E.2d 628 (2010).
Gross income does not include employee benefits that are typically added to the salary, wage, or other compensation that a parent may receive as a standard added benefit including, but not limited to, employer paid portions of health insurance premiums. Hendry v. Hendry, 292 Ga. 1, 734 S.E.2d 46 (2012).
Husband was properly awarded a credit for the cost of providing health insurance for the children. Strunk v. Strunk, 294 Ga. 280, 749 S.E.2d 701 (2013).
- Findings that a husband's income was $65,000 per year for the purposes of calculating child support were not clearly erroneous as evidence was presented that the husband often would not take business engagements unless the husband could make at least $10,000 and the husband testified that the husband's gross earnings varied from $67,000 to $88,000 per year. Vereen v. Vereen, 284 Ga. 755, 670 S.E.2d 402 (2008).
Trial court did not abuse the court's discretion in the court's review of a husband's history of Internal Revenue Service Schedule K-1 income because other amounts not actually received, e.g., payroll taxes, were included in gross income under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(1)(A); the statutory guidelines provide only that income from a closely held corporation "should be carefully reviewed" when determining an appropriate level of gross income to use in calculating child support pursuant to § 19-6-15(f)(1)(B). Simmons v. Simmons, 288 Ga. 670, 706 S.E.2d 456 (2011).
- Because the trial court properly found that the monthly net business profit listed on a husband's child support worksheet was the most credible calculation of his monthly income, and because a child's competitive cheerleading expenses were not a "necessity," the trial court properly awarded child support to the wife pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(1)(B) and (i)(2)(J)(ii). Ellis v. Ellis, 290 Ga. 616, 724 S.E.2d 384 (2012).
- Superior court erred in attempting to recast the court's dismissal of a husband's first petition for modification of child support as "simply a sanction" and not an adjudication on the merits so as to render the dismissal outside the ambit of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(k)(2) because in dismissing the husband's first petition for modification, the superior court did not specify that the order was not an adjudication on the merits, and under O.C.G.A. § 9-11-41(b), it was a final order on the claim for downward modification of child support. Bagwell v. Bagwell, 290 Ga. 378, 721 S.E.2d 847 (2012).
- Mother was entitled to reversal of the trial court's order awarding no child support because the child support worksheets contained erroneous facts and the nonspecific deviations were erroneous; inaccurate factual data was plugged into the worksheets for the purpose of arriving at a pre-determined result that the trial judge announced at the hearing, to "zero out" any child obligations of the parties to each other. Parker v. Parker, 293 Ga. 300, 745 S.E.2d 605 (2013).
Trial court's award of child support was vacated because the trial court's order referenced two child support worksheets purportedly attached as Exhibits, but the worksheets were not attached to the final order; the worksheets and schedules corresponding with the trial court's order were later filed, apparently by the mother's counsel, but were not incorporated into the trial court's order, and it was unclear if the trial court even had the worksheets and schedules in the court's possession when the final order was entered; and pertinent information that would otherwise be found on the worksheets and Schedule E, including that pertaining to deviations and special circumstances, was not included within the order itself. Moore v. Moore, 346 Ga. App. 58, 815 S.E.2d 242 (2018).
- Trial court did not abuse the court's discretion by finding that a father was in contempt for the failure to meet a support obligation because, under the decree, the father was to pay $2,000 per month in child support and after December 15, 2010, following an involuntary job termination, the father was to pay $1,040 per month, but did not do so, paying only $179 per month, or $1,821 less than the original figure. Friday v. Friday, 294 Ga. 687, 755 S.E.2d 707 (2014).
- On appeal from a child support and visitation order, because a parent failed to support claims of error regarding the order, including the trial court's application of the revised child support guidelines under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 et seq., with any citation of authority or argument, and failed to provide the appeals court with a transcript of the proceedings below, that parent's claims were rejected and the orders entered by the trial court had to be affirmed. Sebby v. Costo, 290 Ga. App. 61, 658 S.E.2d 830 (2008).
- Since a parent's children were found to be deprived and were placed temporarily with relatives, pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 15-11- 28(c)(2)(A), the trial court had jurisdiction to order the parent to pay temporary support. However, the court lacked jurisdiction to enter a final award of support under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 as no final order was entered disposing of the case. In the Interest of R.F., 295 Ga. App. 739, 673 S.E.2d 108 (2009).
- Trial court erred in failing to hold a hearing as required by Ga. Unif. Super. Ct. R. 6.3 on a husband's post-trial motion for a new trial on the basis of the trial court's failure to make child support findings as required by O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15. The husband was not required to file a written request for oral argument. Kuriatnyk v. Kuriatnyk, 286 Ga. 589, 690 S.E.2d 397 (2010).
- In a child support modification action that resulted in an increase in the father's child support, even if not to the extent requested by the mother, the mother was the prevailing party under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(k)(5), and only the mother could be awarded attorney's fees; the trial court erred in finding that there could be, and were, two prevailing parties. Mironov v. Mironov, 296 Ga. 114, 765 S.E.2d 326 (2014).

It is duty of jury to fix amount minor children shall be entitled to for their permanent support. Hardy v. Pennington, 187 Ga. 523, 1 S.E.2d 667 (1939).
Jury is vested with discretion as to amount, character, and duration of permanent support to be awarded to the child or children of the unsuccessful marriage, and an instruction, that if the jury found in favor of the children, the jury should fix an allowance that would be sufficient to provide for their maintenance, protection, and education until their majority is erroneous. Mell v. Mell, 190 Ga. 508, 9 S.E.2d 756 (1940).
- In determining husband's gross income, the jury was not entitled to "discount" amounts such as retirement pay awarded to the wife, the minor child's college costs, insurance premiums and other factors. Franz v. Franz, 268 Ga. 465, 490 S.E.2d 377 (1997).
- On the husband's ability to pay, the jury may take into consideration his age, the condition of his health, his material resources, his present income, and any previous allowance voluntarily made by the husband for the support of the wife. Fried v. Fried, 211 Ga. 149, 84 S.E.2d 576 (1954) (decided prior to the 1989 amendment establishing guidelines for child support awards).
Settlement between husband and wife, in which no provision is made for child, is not considered by jury in estimating the allowance to a child which had not been previously awarded the child by decree of the court. Johnson v. Johnson, 131 Ga. 606, 62 S.E. 1044 (1908).
- Jury award which based child support solely on a percentage computation of the father's income, without setting a flat sum for which he was liable, did not comply with the requirement of the statute that a definite amount be specified. Newsome v. Newsome, 237 Ga. 221, 227 S.E.2d 347 (1976); Wilcox v. Wilcox, 242 Ga. 598, 250 S.E.2d 465 (1978).
- When viewed in connection with the remedy provided in former Code 1933, § 30-207 (see now O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15), the principle of former Code 1933, § 74-105 (see now O.C.G.A. § 19-7-2) operates to authorize, though it does not require, the jury to find a support for the minor children until their majority. Mell v. Mell, 190 Ga. 508, 9 S.E.2d 756 (1940).
Amount found by jury may or may not be calculated to support children until majority. Mell v. Mell, 190 Ga. 508, 9 S.E.2d 756 (1940).
- While parties may enter into an agreement concerning modification of child support, the agreement becomes an enforceable agreement only when made an order of the court pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 19-6-19. Pearson v. Pearson, 265 Ga. 100, 454 S.E.2d 124 (1995).
Although a trial court was authorized to conclude that the parents had agreed to submit the parties' settlement agreement to the court, the court was not authorized to enforce the terms of the agreement as to the past-due arrearage, or to modify future child support payments without ensuring that such a modification was in the best interests of the child. Wright v. Burch, 331 Ga. App. 839, 771 S.E.2d 490 (2015).
- When the original child support decree provided for a reduction of child support upon the oldest child's majority, thus providing an ending time for that portion of the parent's support obligation relating to the oldest child, the trial court in a modification action had no authority to extend the period for which the parent would be required to pay child support for three children. Eubanks v. Rabon, 281 Ga. 708, 642 S.E.2d 652 (2007).
- Guidelines added by the 1989 amendment may be applied retroactively to a petition to modify child support provisions in a decree entered before the effective date of the amendment. Walker v. Walker, 260 Ga. 442, 396 S.E.2d 235 (1990).
Child support guidelines of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 apply to child support modification actions and to divorce actions seeking to establish an initial obligation of child support. That section can be applied retroactively to modify a 1983 divorce judgment. Riggs v. Darsey, 260 Ga. 487, 396 S.E.2d 905 (1990).
Child-support guidelines are applicable to a modification action (Riggs v. Darsey, 260 Ga. 487, 396 S.E.2d 905 (1990)), and the trial court must review the agreement in light of the child support amounts contained in the child-support guidelines. Pearson v. Pearson, 265 Ga. 100, 454 S.E.2d 124 (1995).
- Trial court did not err in imputing income of $2,500 to an unemployed parent based on the parent's training and experience as a paralegal and the trial court's finding that the parent had failed to show efforts to obtain employment and was choosing not to work. The downward adjustment by the trial court was not retroactive to the date of the petition for modification; O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(j) did not apply to this case, in which only modification of child support was sought. Galvin v. Galvin, 288 Ga. 125, 702 S.E.2d 155 (2010).
- Parent's petition for downward modification of the parent's child support obligation should have been dismissed because the parent did not invoke the exception contained in O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(k)(2)(C) in the parent's successive petition; the relevant time frame for the parent's alleged loss of income in excess of the statutory exception was from the date of the prior modification ruling, and the material allegations of the petition were essentially that of the prior petition for modification. Bagwell v. Bagwell, 290 Ga. 378, 721 S.E.2d 847 (2012).
- Trier of fact may place a time limit on child support but only if the court ties it to some financial consideration. Scherberger v. Scherberger, 260 Ga. 635, 398 S.E.2d 363 (1990).
Award of a home to the wife and the children until the youngest child turns 18 or the wife remarries constitute an illegal future modification of child support not tied to income fluctuation. Scherberger v. Scherberger, 260 Ga. 635, 398 S.E.2d 363 (1990).
- When the Department of Human Resources (DHR) petitions the superior court to adopt the Department's recommendation, the court is not required to find a need for additional support but, without regard to whether a child is receiving public assistance, may increase child support based solely on a significant inconsistency between an existing order and the amount which would result from application of the child support guidelines; the Child Support Recovery Act, O.C.G.A. § 19-11-1 et seq., does not contain any basis for continuing to distinguish between the procedure available since the child is receiving public assistance and that which is available in the absence of any such assistance. The trial court erred in concluding that evidence of the need for additional support was necessary and that DHR lacked standing, and in failing to apply child support guidelines and to justify any departure therefrom. Falkenberry v. Taylor, 278 Ga. 842, 607 S.E.2d 567 (2005).
In a child support modification action, the trial court erred in concluding that evidence of the need for additional support was necessary and that the Department of Human Resources (DHR) lacked standing to file a modification action on behalf of a child not receiving public assistance unless the court could show the child's need for additional support, and in failing to apply the child support guidelines of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 and to justify any departure therefrom; by express statutory amendment, the General Assembly no longer reserved for the private bar those modification actions which involved children who did not receive public assistance and needed no additional support, but whose court-ordered provider enjoyed an enhanced financial status. Falkenberry v. Taylor, 278 Ga. 842, 607 S.E.2d 567 (2005)(Unpublished).
Trial court erred by requiring that an ex-wife refrain from applying for any government assistance for the children while the ex-wife receives child support from the ex-husband because it was an effort to make a predetermined finding with respect to a potential future modification and was unauthorized under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15. Singh v. Hammond, 292 Ga. 579, 740 S.E.2d 126 (2013).
- Trial court's order modifying child support outside the range of the Georgia Child Support Guidelines was required to state the amount of support that would have been required under the guidelines and to contain a written finding as to the father's gross income. Faulkner v. Frampton, 216 Ga. App. 785, 456 S.E.2d 88 (1995).
Order that the father pay increased child support based on a substantial change in the father's financial condition was reversed because although the jury checked several special circumstances listed on the verdict form, the jury failed to explicitly state whether an award under the guidelines was excessive; the special circumstances checked did not imply that the jury thought the award was excessive, in fact, the checked circumstances supported an inference that the guideline award was inadequate and that the jury intended for the father to pay more, not less. Lewis v. Scruggs, 261 Ga. App. 573, 583 S.E.2d 240 (2003).
- Wife was entitled to an upward modification of child support because the wife presented evidence that the husband's gross monthly income had increased from $8,898 to $10,700.91 during the period between entry of the final divorce decree and the filing of the petition for modification and there was evidence that the husband's net worth had increased by almost three million dollars. That evidence supported the trial court's finding of a substantial change in income and financial status sufficient to authorize modification of the support award and supported the trial court's deviation from the presumptive amount of child support based on a parent's financial ability to provide for private school education. Odom v. Odom, 291 Ga. 811, 733 S.E.2d 741 (2012).
- While the trial court did not erroneously set a mother's child support obligation at a percentage well below the guidelines, the court lacked the authority to completely forgive the mother's arrearage as the General Assembly did not intend to permit forgiveness of past-due child support arrearage, regardless of whether the modification proceeding fell under the general statutory scheme or the Child Support Recovery Act, O.C.G.A. § 19-11-1 et seq. Ga. Dep't of Human Res. v. Prater, 278 Ga. App. 900, 630 S.E.2d 145 (2006).
In modifying a father's child support obligation, the trial court erred in increasing support above the amount in the guidelines without making a finding of special circumstances warranting such a deviation; furthermore, the trial court erred in not applying the guidelines to the father's counterclaim for an increase of the support the mother was to pay the father during the summer. Eubanks v. Rabon, 281 Ga. 708, 642 S.E.2d 652 (2007).
Modification of a child support obligation in a garnishment action, rather than a petition to modify, was erroneous. Twineham v. Daniel, 223 Ga. App. 25, 476 S.E.2d 814 (1996).
- O.C.G.A. § 19-6- 15(h)(3)(B)(i) does not authorize garnishment for uninsured health care expenses that have not been reduced to a money judgment without compliance with the requirements of the more restrictive prejudgment garnishment procedure set out in O.C.G.A. § 18-4-40. Stoker v. Severin, 292 Ga. App. 870, 665 S.E.2d 913 (2008).
In a proceeding to legitimate a child, the trial court did not err in calculating the petitioning parent's child support obligation to be $2,200 per month as the trial court relied on the testimony of the petitioning parent's accountant, the ex-spouse who remained a business partner, and the petitioning parent's tax returns and self-employment income documentation. Appling v. Tatum, 295 Ga. App. 78, 670 S.E.2d 795 (2008).
- In increasing a remarried father's child support obligation based on increased income, the trial court properly considered his support obligation to his child by his new wife; the trial court had considered the father's income as well as his current wife's income and ultimately decided that based on his obligations to his current household, the father was entitled to reduce the upward modification of child support payments. Sharpe v. Perkins, 284 Ga. App. 376, 644 S.E.2d 178 (2007), cert. denied, No. S07C1123, 2007 Ga. LEXIS 509 (Ga. 2007).
- Following a change of custody from mother to father, it was error to include child support formerly paid by the father in the mother's income for purposes of calculating her child support obligation. Martin v. Greco, 225 Ga. App. 752, 484 S.E.2d 789 (1997).
- Since the parties' settlement agreement modified custody so each would be the residential custodian of one child, the trial court erred by approving a provision in the agreement that neither would pay the other child support because the court did not determine whether this provision complied with the child support guidelines. Ford v. Hanna, 293 Ga. App. 863, 668 S.E.2d 271 (2008).
Trial court did not address whether there had been a change in the financial circumstances of the husband since the original child support award. If the husband's financial status had not substantially changed, then no modification was appropriate, if modification was appropriate, then the court was required to use the child support guidelines to calculate the new amount. Wetherington v. Wetherington, 291 Ga. 722, 732 S.E.2d 433 (2012).
Trial court's child support award was reversed and the case was remanded for reconsideration because the trial court's award of child support was predicated on the court's decision to change custody of the parties' son, which change was vacated. Blue v. Hemmans, 327 Ga. App. 353, 759 S.E.2d 72 (2014).
Temporary child support judgment was reversed and the case remanded for entry of an order that complied with O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(4)(D) because the order showed on the order's face that the guidelines were not used and that the trial court was unable to calculate various items relating to child support and arrears; if modification was appropriate, then the trial court was required to use the child support guidelines to calculate the new amount. Neal v. Hibbard, 296 Ga. 882, 770 S.E.2d 600 (2015).
- In the mother's petition to modify child support, there was no articulated basis for application of a specified discretionary deviation from the presumptive child support obligation because the history of the parties was not a ground for deviation in child support, and the modified physical custody awarded the father fell far short of being substantially equal to that with the mother. Crook v. Crook, 293 Ga. 867, 750 S.E.2d 334 (2013).
- A 15-month delay in the effective date of an upward modification of child support was improper under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(k)(3)(B). When a modification award involved at least a 30% difference, as in the instant case, the new child support award could be phased in over a period of up to two years with at least an initial immediate adjustment of not less than 25 percent of the difference. Hampton v. Nesmith, 294 Ga. App. 514, 669 S.E.2d 489 (2008).
- Trial court could properly award child support to a parent who filed a petition for change of custody and child support, even though the child had reached the age of 18 by the time the petition was considered. The parent was not divested of the right to seek child support for the period of time between the filing of the petition and the date on which the child turned 18, and as the child had not yet completed high school, an order for support beyond the child's 18th birthday could be entered. Wade v. Corinthian, 283 Ga. 514, 661 S.E.2d 532 (2008).
- Trial court did not abuse the court's discretion by refusing to apply discretionary parenting-time deviation from the presumptive child support amount set forth in O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(i)(2)(K) as sought by a parent because the parent failed to show a special circumstance showing the presumptive amount of support excessive or that the child's best interest would be served by subtracting from the presumptive amount. Hamlin v. Ramey, 291 Ga. App. 222, 661 S.E.2d 593 (2008).
- Parent did not prove entitlement to a modification of child support because, even assuming the money the parent received from a trust of which the parent and the children's grandparent were the sole beneficiaries was a gift, it had to be included in the parent's gross income under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(1)(A)(xvii). In the Interest of R.F., 295 Ga. App. 739, 673 S.E.2d 108 (2009).
- Because the father consented to the modification of the father's monthly child support obligation, although the father disputed the amount that the father should be required to pay under the statutory guidelines, the father waived any objection to whether the threshold requirements for the child support modification were otherwise met, including a change in the father's financial status or a change in the needs of the child. Moore v. Moore, 346 Ga. App. 58, 815 S.E.2d 242 (2018).
- When a parent agreed to child support in excess of the O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 support guidelines and did not subsequently show a reduction in the parent's financial status and income, a downward modification of child support under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-19(a) was properly denied. Moccia v. Moccia, 277 Ga. 571, 592 S.E.2d 664 (2004).
Because two years had not elapsed from a prior court order disposing of an earlier petition for support modification filed by one parent, the trial court did not err when the court dismissed under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(k)(2) the portion of a petition seeking modification of the child-support award. Avren v. Garten, 289 Ga. 186, 710 S.E.2d 130 (2011).
- Trial court properly designated a father as the custodial parent pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(a)(9), and required the mother to pay child support to the father because it was undisputed that the child was spending equal time with the parents and that the mother had the higher income. Stoddard v. Meyer, 291 Ga. 739, 732 S.E.2d 439 (2012).
Trial court did not err by imputing income to the mother because there was evidence that the mother and new husband had determined that it was to the advantage of their children that the mother not work outside the home. Carr-MacArthur v. Carr, 296 Ga. 30, 764 S.E.2d 840 (2014).
- Trial court record was devoid of evidence that a parent had the ability or means to earn an amount found by the trial court, such that the court's grant of the other parent's request for an upward modification of the parent's child support obligation could not stand; the evidence was uncontroverted that the parent's income and earning capacity had dramatically decreased. Herrin v. Herrin, 287 Ga. 427, 696 S.E.2d 626 (2010).
- Trial court abused the court's discretion in increasing a mother's child support obligation because the court failed to determine whether her income had substantially changed from the entry of the divorce decree pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(k)(4), and even if the trial court correctly disregarded the reduction in the mother's income, the evidence failed to show an increase in the mother's income since her divorce; while it appeared that the trial court modified the child support award consistent with existing child support guidelines, the court had no valid basis to do so. Harris v. Williams, 304 Ga. App. 390, 696 S.E.2d 131 (2010), overruled on other grounds, Viskup v. Viskup, 291 Ga. 103, 727 S.E.2d 97 (2012).
- Trial court, by including an additional child support provision requiring a father to pay an annual payment of 25 percent of his gross commissions on top of the presumptive child support amount, circumvented the requirement that a court only may deviate from the presumptive amount after making the necessary findings in O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(i)(1)(B). Stowell v. Huguenard, 288 Ga. 628, 706 S.E.2d 419 (2011).
- Child support award was reversed because nothing in O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 authorized the trial court to consider the income or other resources of the father's new spouse as a part of the calculation of the child support obligation as his new wife had no legal obligation to contribute, directly or indirectly, to the support of the parties' three children. Blumenshine v. Hall, 329 Ga. App. 449, 765 S.E.2d 647 (2014).
- It was error for the trial court in modifying a child support award to take judicial notice of an increase in the needs of the children because the question of whether there had been such an increase would be a matter of proof if it had been placed in issue; the error was harmless, however, as the modification order did not expressly mention an increase in the children's needs as a basis for increasing the child support. Eubanks v. Rabon, 281 Ga. 708, 642 S.E.2d 652 (2007).
- Father's child support obligation did not continue to accrue at the same rate after the mother was served with the father's petition to modify child support. Under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(j), support due before the entry of a modification order did not accrue to the extent that the obligation was based on the father's income from employment from which the father had been involuntarily terminated. Morgan v. Bunzendahl, 316 Ga. App. 338, 729 S.E.2d 476 (2012).
- Since the modification order encompassed and modified the entire child support obligation including the duty to pay miscellaneous expenses, and the order modified child support without deviation for miscellaneous expenses, the order did not leave the prior miscellaneous expense provision in full force and effect and the father could not be in contempt for failure to pay those expenses. East v. Stephens, 292 Ga. 604, 740 S.E.2d 156 (2013).
- In a child custody modification proceeding, the trial court erred by awarding attorney fees to the father in the amount of $4,000 under O.C.G.A. § 19-9-3 as the award was not supported by the record since the trial court did not explain the statutory basis for the award and did not enter any findings necessary to support the award as required by O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(k)(5). Kuehn v. Key, 325 Ga. App. 512, 754 S.E.2d 103 (2014).
In an action to modify child custody, the trial court was authorized to award attorney fees under O.C.G.A. §§ 19-6-15(k)(5) and19-9-3(g); however, because the mother and the trial court did not state a statutory basis for the award, the award was vacated and the case was remanded for the trial court to explain the statutory basis for the award and to enter any necessary factual findings. Hill v. Davis, 337 Ga. App. 683, 788 S.E.2d 570 (2016).
- Trial court erred in awarding attorney fees without specifying a statutory or factual basis for the award as there were two plausible statutory bases for the award, O.C.G.A. § 9-15-14 or O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15, and the record contained no statement regarding the amount attributable to the pursuit or defense of claims for which attorney fees were recoverable or how the trial court calculated the court's award, which was less than requested. Hall v. Hall, 335 Ga. App. 208, 780 S.E.2d 787 (2015).
- Trial court, upon modifying an award of child support, must enter written findings of special circumstances in order to deviate, up or down, from the child support guidelines. Ehlers v. Ehlers, 264 Ga. 668, 449 S.E.2d 840 (1994).
Award of child support in the case sub judice being beyond the range of statutory guidelines, the trial court erred in failing to provide the required written findings. Kennedy v. Adams, 218 Ga. App. 120, 460 S.E.2d 540 (1995).
Even though O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15 was amended since the finding in Ehlers v. Ehlers, 264 Ga. 668, 449 S.E.2d 840 (1994), the requirement for written findings remains. Department of Human Resources v. Wilcox, 219 Ga. App. 757, 466 S.E.2d 662 (1996).
Trial court erred in setting aside a father's child support obligation because the trial court failed to make a written finding of the gross income of the father and the mother as required by O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(a), or of the presence or absence of special circumstances justifying a departure from the guidelines applicable range as required by O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c). Eleazer v. Eleazer, 275 Ga. 482, 569 S.E.2d 521 (2002).
Trial court erred in not fully adopting the recommendation of the Department of Human Resources to reduce a father's child support obligation to $718 per month and in ordering that the father's child support obligation be reduced to $1,000 per month because the trial court's written order failed to state how application of the presumptive amount of child support would be unjust or inappropriate and how the best interest of the children for whom support was being determined would be served by the deviation pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c)(2)(E) and (i)(1)(B); O.C.G.A. § 19-11-12(e) does not authorize the trial court to refrain from written findings or any other compliance with § 19-6-15 because like § 19-6-15(d), § 19-11-12(e) serves to emphasize that the qualitative determinations of whether special circumstances make the presumptive amount of child support excessive or inadequate and whether deviating from the presumptive amount serves the best interest of the child are committed to the discretion of the court. Spurlock v. Dep't of Human Res., 286 Ga. 512, 690 S.E.2d 378 (2010).
Juvenile court erred in awarding child support without making the written findings required by O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c)(2), including a determination of the parents' gross income and certain findings regarding the child's health insurance coverage and apportionment of the child's uninsured health care expenses. Roberts v. Tharp, 286 Ga. 579, 690 S.E.2d 404 (2010).
- When a final child support order included a specific deviation for extraordinary educational expenses under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(i)(2)(J)(i), but the trial court failed to make the statutorily required written findings necessary to support the deviation, remand was required for a redetermination of the order, with any deviation to be based upon proper written findings. Brogdon v. Brogdon, 290 Ga. 618, 723 S.E.2d 421 (2012).
- Order of modification deviating from the presumptive child support obligation was flawed because the modification failed to comply with the statutory requirements of supporting findings and documentation for a discretionary downward deviation in the amount of child support. Crook v. Crook, 293 Ga. 867, 750 S.E.2d 334 (2013).
In a child support case, although both parties waived findings of fact, the trial court in deviating from the child support guidelines was nevertheless required to set forth how application of the guidelines would be unjust or inappropriate, or how the best interests of the children would be served by a deviation, under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c)(2)(E). Wallace v. Wallace, 296 Ga. 307, 766 S.E.2d 452 (2014).
In action concerning child custody and child support, the trial court's final order had to be reversed because the order did not contain the requisite findings of fact to support the court's conclusions regarding child support and there was no child support worksheet or schedules attached to the order as required by O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c)(2)(E). Black v. Ferlingere, 333 Ga. App. 789, 777 S.E.2d 268 (2015).
Written finding of fact not required when the court orders the statutory presumptive amount. If no deviation applies and the trial court or jury decides not to deviate from the presumptive amount of child support, then the order need not explain how the trial court or jury reached that decision. Hamlin v. Ramey, 291 Ga. App. 222, 661 S.E.2d 593 (2008).
Father failed to show that a trial court's determination that the mother had no monthly gross income constituted a "deviation" that required the trial court to make findings of fact under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15. The statute contemplated that a deviation was an increase or decrease from the presumptive amount of child support. Kennedy v. Kennedy, 309 Ga. App. 590, 711 S.E.2d 103 (2011).
In a divorce action in which the mother earned $5,097 monthly and the father earned $54,732 monthly, the trial court in granting a $2,000 upward deviation from the presumptive amount of support failed to explain how the guidelines amount would be unjust or inappropriate and how the best interest of the children was served by deviation as required by O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c)(2)(E)(iii); remand was required for such written findings. Fladger v. Fladger, 296 Ga. 145, 765 S.E.2d 354 (2014).
Trial court erred by failing to include findings in the court's child support award as to the court's deviation from the presumptive amount of child support based on the parent's military deployment. Carr-MacArthur v. Carr, 296 Ga. 30, 764 S.E.2d 840 (2014).
- Award was vacated and the case remanded after the trial court awarded child support without making a written finding as to the gross incomes of the child's parents, without applying the applicable statutory percentage range, and without making a written finding of special circumstances justifying the departure from the guidelines' applicable range. Urquhart v. Urquhart, 272 Ga. 548, 533 S.E.2d 80 (2000).
Georgia Supreme Court has noted that an award of child support may be based on the earning capacity of the obligor and not on gross income in certain circumstances; but it is also apparent that the obligor's gross income is the starting point for a child support determination under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(b). However, an order awarding child support was vacated since the trial court failed to determine the father's gross income, but made a child support award based on the earning capacity of the father; therefore, the section of the child support award as to attorney fees and the fees of the guardian ad litem was also vacated inasmuch as the trial court made these determinations in the context of the court's ruling awarding child support. Eldridge v. Ireland, 259 Ga. App. 44, 576 S.E.2d 44 (2002).
O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(a) requires a divorce decree to include a written finding of the gross income of the father and the mother; when the decree included a finding of the husband's income, but did not include a finding of the wife's income, it was necessary that the case be remanded to the trial court with direction to make a finding of the wife's income, to reconsider the award of child support based on that finding, and to amend the decree accordingly. Southerland v. Southerland, 278 Ga. 188, 598 S.E.2d 442 (2004).
Because the trial court's order failed to specify the amount of child support to be paid, include a written finding of the gross income of each parent, and discuss the presence or absence of special circumstances in accordance with O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c), the failure to include these requisite findings constituted reversible error. Simmons v. Williams, 290 Ga. App. 644, 660 S.E.2d 435 (2008).
- Trial court adhered to the child support obligation table and, thus, pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(i)(1)(B), was not required to make any fact findings or explain the court's decision to forego applying the children's private school tuition to the child support calculations. Johnson v. Johnson, 284 Ga. 366, 667 S.E.2d 350 (2008).
- Although in making adjustments to a mother's income for other qualified children, the trial court was not required to make the type of findings that would support a deviation from presumptive child support, the trial court erred in not making findings regarding the child's best interests under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(f)(5)(C). Wheeler v. Akins, 327 Ga. App. 830, 761 S.E.2d 383 (2014).
Court may include in decree provision for educational funds including expenses for attending a college during minority when the circumstances of the case warrant it. Coleman v. Coleman, 240 Ga. 417, 240 S.E.2d 870 (1977).
- Jury is not prohibited from providing for the education of minor children of an unsuccessful marriage. Bateman v. Bateman, 224 Ga. 20, 159 S.E.2d 387 (1968).
- Trial court did not err in leaving the children's private school tuition out of the court's child support calculations because, under O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(i)(2)(J)(i), extraordinary educational expenses were not required to be factored into that calculation. Johnson v. Johnson, 284 Ga. 366, 667 S.E.2d 350 (2008).
Verdict merely finding amount for education of child is contrary to law. While it would scarcely be possible to educate a child without supporting the child, such a verdict leaves the question of support undecided and in such case a new trial should be granted. Flynn v. Flynn, 149 Ga. 693, 101 S.E. 806 (1920); Bateman v. Bateman, 224 Ga. 20, 159 S.E.2d 387 (1968).
- Trial court's order regarding child support did not comply with O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15(c)(2)(E) and (i)(1)(B) because the order failed to include the necessary findings; the trial court's award of tuition outside of the support award was an unexplained deviation. Johnson v. Ware, 313 Ga. App. 774, 723 S.E.2d 18 (2012).
- Any obligation to pay educational expenses of a child imposed by the decree terminates when the child reaches majority or marries. Coleman v. Coleman, 240 Ga. 417, 240 S.E.2d 870 (1977).
- In determining the amount of child support to be paid, the trial court can give consideration to indirect costs paid by the obligor, e.g., health insurance premiums, in departing from guidelines, but such indirect payments can be considered only to vary the final award. Ehlers v. Ehlers, 264 Ga. 668, 449 S.E.2d 840 (1994).
- Modification action to extend support payments to allow a child who had reached the age of majority to complete a secondary school education was not required to be filed before the child's 18th birthday. Ferguson v. Ferguson, 267 Ga. 886, 485 S.E.2d 475 (1997).
In order to extend support payments to allow a child who had reached the age of majority to complete a secondary school education, it was not required that provision for such possibility have been made in the temporary or final support order. Ferguson v. Ferguson, 267 Ga. 886, 485 S.E.2d 475 (1997).
- Because the superior court erroneously focused on a son's absences, tardiness, and failure to attend summer school when the court concluded that the son was not a "continuous full time student" when the son reached the age of majority, the decision was not in accord with the parties' agreement or the legislative purpose of O.C.G.A. § 19-6-15. Bullard v. Swafford, 279 Ga. 577, 619 S.E.2d 665 (2005).
Trial court erred when the court determined that a father's child-support obligation terminated because the child was not enrolled in and attending school on a full-time basis between June and August because the agreement between the father and the mother did not require the child's continuous attendance in school during the summer months but required only the child's full-time attendance in school; full-time school does not require attendance in school during the summer months. Draughn v. Draughn, 288 Ga. 734, 707 S.E.2d 52 (2011).
- Trial court erred in finding that a child's enrollment in online courses did not satisfy a modification order's requirement that the child "attend" school in order to have the father pay child support beyond the child's attainment of majority; once a child enrolls in approved online courses in an effort to graduate from a secondary school, the child's online attendance constitutes "attending school" for purposes of extending child support beyond the child's attainment of the age of majority. Draughn v. Draughn, 288 Ga. 734, 707 S.E.2d 52 (2011).
- Res judicata did not bar a father's claim for interpretation and enforcement of child support provisions in the parties' settlement agreement; the agreement clearly gave the father final authority over the children's school and the mother, as custodial parent, was obligated to pay the children's tuition from the support she received. Hardman v. Hardman, 295 Ga. 732, 763 S.E.2d 861 (2014).
- For purposes of the child support award, the juvenile court erred in considering free tuition that the mother received through the mother's employer as a fringe benefit to be included in the mother's gross income as the tuition benefit did not significantly reduce the mother's personal living expenses. Noble v. Noble, 345 Ga. App. 799, 815 S.E.2d 150 (2018).
