Rene E. Limeres, Appellant v. Amy W. Limeres, Appellee

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed the superior court’s denial of a hearing on Rene Limeres’s motion to modify child support, finding no new evidence warranted a new hearing, and vacated the award of attorney’s fees to Amy Limeres because the fee award was made without a motion and without giving Rene an opportunity to respond. The Court remanded for a response on the fee issue. Justice Maassen dissented, arguing the evidence raised a genuine issue of material fact and required a hearing.
