Alaska Supreme Court

Joshua C. Wilhour, Appellant v. Jacqueline S. Wilhour, Appellee

September 6, 20132013 Alas. LEXIS 117

Summary

The court vacated a child-support modification order because the superior court denied an evidentiary hearing despite genuine factual disputes concerning both parties’ incomes and Joshua’s future earning capacity. It also held that the court failed to explain why it selected an effective date later than the date Joshua served his modification motion. The case was remanded for an evidentiary hearing, recalculation as appropriate, and reconsideration of the effective date.
