New York Court of Appeals

Martin Strahl v. Leila Strahl

May 8, 198049 N.Y.2d 1036

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division’s order, including costs. While affirming, the Court cautioned that its holding should not be read as approval of modifying a child support obligation based on the custodial parent's compliance with visitation orders, and left open the possibility that such a modification could constitute an abuse of discretion under different circumstances.
