should a court modify a payor spouse’s obligation to pay child support when that individual voluntarily left his or her job?
What will be an ideal response?
It can be argued that sometimes retraining or a temporary reduction in pay may be necessary for a job (or career) change, but courts tend to enforce support at a level of imputed income if someone has voluntarily reduced his or her income. Involuntary job loss or salary reduction should probably result in a request for modification, since until the court readjusts the support amount, the original order stands, and arrearages accumulate.
