Williams v. James

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Family Court’s judgment concerning the Father’s child-support obligation. It held that the retroactivity date was properly set at January 18, 2021, that the Father’s net water-ice-business profits and wages reflected in his pay stubs were properly included in income, and that bonuses are includable in child-support calculations. The Court declined to consider evidence presented for the first time on appeal and noted that a substantial change in circumstances may support a later modification petition.
