In the Interest of Cavanaugh ex rel. Cavanaugh v. Pinto
Opinion of the Court
ORDER
John Brigham Pinto (“Father”) appeals an adverse judgment rendered by the Circuit Court of Cole County on a Petition for Declaration of Father and Child Relationship, Order of Child Custody, Visitation and Support filed by Dawn Lynnette Ca-vanaugh (“Mother”). Father contends that the trial court’s award of retroactive and prospective child support to Mother was erroneous because: (1) the amount of work-related child care expenses included in the court’s Form 14 was not reasonable but excessive and extreme; (2) the court failed to impute income to Mother, overes
We have thoroughly reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal. Finding no error, we affirm the judgment in its entirety and remand the cause to the trial court to permit the parties to litigate Mother’s motion for attorney’s fees on appeal. Although an extended opinion would have no precedential value, we have provided the parties a memorandum setting forth the reasons for our decision.
Judgment affirmed. Rule 84.16(b).
