Buncombe County ex rel. Child Enforcement Support Agency v. Peek
Buncombe County ex rel. Child Enforcement Support Agency v. Peek
Opinion of the Court
This case was consolidated for appeal with two prior actions: a paternity action in which the defendant was adjudicated to be the father of the subject minor child; and, a subsequent child support action in which the defendant was ordered to pay child support. The subject appeal is a challenge to the trial court’s order requiring defendant to post a cash bond to secure enforcement of the child support judgment. We reversed the underlying paternity action, Lombroia v. Peek, and remanded that case to the District Court for a new trial. As a result of our holding in Lombroia v. Peek, we reversed the Child Support Order. It follows
Reversed and remanded.
