North Dakota Supreme Court
Sharon M. Cline, Plaintiff and Appellant v. David D. Cline, Defendant and Appellee
June 7, 20072007 N.D. LEXIS 87
Summary
The court held that the district court erred by continuing a stipulated two-month child-support credit without recalculating the obligation under the child-support guidelines. Guideline adjustments for extended visitation and visitation-related travel expenses had to be calculated using the prescribed formulas, and the statutory 85-percent threshold did not authorize a nonconforming award. The judgment was reversed and remanded for recalculation.
