Deborah Coates v. Thomas Coates

This appeal arose after the trial court rejected the father's petition to reduce child support. Because the father showed a substantial variance between the amount of child support he was ordered to pay and the amount of child support called for under the guidelines, we reverse the trial court's order denying modification prospectively. Because the court originally awarded support from the father's property, we affirm the denial of modification of that portion of the child support award.
