Supreme Court of South Carolina

Maria Miller, Appellant v. Christopher Miller, Respondent

September 5, 1989299 S.C. 307

Summary

The court affirmed the requirement that the mother assist with transporting the children after summer visitation but reversed the reduction in child support. It held that the evidence did not establish a substantial or material change in circumstances because the father's reduced income had been considered when the original support order was entered, and his financial position had otherwise improved. The court also held that, even if modification were justified, the family court improperly applied the child-support guidelines by omitting work-related childcare expenses.
