Nebraska Supreme Court

Mickey L. Rhoades, Appellee v. Mary Jo Rhoades, Appellant

February 4, 2000258 Neb. 721

Summary

The court held that the district court abused its discretion by allowing a self-employed parent to deduct the capital cost of a truck-tractor when calculating income for child support modification. The deduction was not shown to have been used in the original support calculation, and there was no showing that disallowing it would produce an unjust or inappropriate result. The judgment was reversed and remanded for further proceedings.
