Florida Department of Revenue v. Wilson
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided November 26, 2012 · Padovano, Ray, Rowe
100 So. 3d 1283; 2012 Fla. App. LEXIS 20248; 2012 WL 5907251 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Florida Department of Revenue v. Wilson

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We conclude that the administrative law judge erred in departing downward from the child support guidelines. A deviation from the guidelines for shared parenting would be appropriate only if the parties had a court-authorized parenting plan. See Department of Revenue ex. rel. Sherman v. Daly, 74 So.3d 165 (Fla. 1st DCA 2011). The visitation arrangement between the parents in this case was not part of a formal plan authorized by the court. Accordingly, we reverse with instructions to recalculate the child support.
