Roland W. Dalin, Plaintiff and Appellee v. Patricia Jo Dalin, Defendant and Appellant

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of an upward deviation from the guideline child-support amount because Patricia did not prove that Roland purchased the pickup to reduce income available for support. It reversed the determination of Roland's net income because the trial court adopted an incorrect calculation that improperly deducted standard deductions and personal exemptions from self-employment income. The case was remanded for recalculation under the guidelines and reconsideration of Patricia's support obligation during the periods when Roland had custody.
