Q: calculating the pro-rata share of certain obligations such as summer camp. But isn't my ex's income relevant to calculating child support itself in some way -- even though my ex is the recipient of that child support?
A: David's Answer: While technically the custodial parent's income is considered in the calculation, as a practical matter your ex's income doesn't effect the amount of basic support unless combined income exceeds $141,000 (& even then, greatly so) or there was some basis to argue that the amount was "unjust or (grossly) inappropriate. You're best advised to schedule a consult with a White Plains Child Support lawyer for a full assessment. -- David Bliven, Westchester Child Support attorney (www.blivenlaw.net)
