Thomas v. Thomas
Thomas v. Thomas
Opinion of the Court
The defendant appeals from the judgment of the trial court in this action for dissolution of marriage. The defendant claims that the trial court improperly entered orders regarding property distribution, alimony and child support. The plaintiff concedes, and we agree, that the trial court acted improperly “in predicating an award of child support by the application of the statutory guidelines to the parties’ financial circumstances at the time that pendente lite orders were entered.” The plaintiff further stated that “there was uncertainty as to the [defendant’s] actual income.”
The judgment is reversed as to the financial orders only and the case is remanded for a new hearing on all financial issues.
