I have a divorce decree that requires my ex husband to pay $600 per month in child support. (Florida) This was based on him making $17 an hour and I was making $7. Fast forward to 2014 and he is making $25 after being demoted from making $28 an hour. I currently make $15.00 and have primary residential custody but he has her for about 30% of the time for overnights. He is now asking for a reduction in child support to $300 because of his demotion. I explained to him that I never requested an increase, nor did he in the last 8 years when his pay increased. He has assets such as a house and 3 cars. For 5 years, I paid between 5000-7000 a year in child care. That reduced to $600 a year for two years, and now I pay a bout $1200 a year.
Is his request likely to be granted? I don't think so but I would appreciate an opinion.
Most likely his petition will be denied. You should file your own papers asking for an increase in child support. Contact my office for free consultation 727-446-7659
