Alaska Supreme Court

Jeffrey E. Gorton v. Stephanie J. Mann

July 27, 20122012 Alas. LEXIS 109

Summary

The court affirmed the child-support calculation for the parties' son. It held that the father's income could be reduced only by the child-support amount actually paid for children from his prior marriage, not by a hypothetical full-time-care deduction. The court reasoned that the existing shared-custody calculation already accounts for the father's direct expenses and the other parent's contribution.
