v.

 

Margaret A. LeVatte

Respondent

 

 

Judge:                   The Honourable Justice M. Jill Hamilton

 

Appeal Heard:      May 14, 2007       

 

Subject:       Family law, interim order re arrears of child support

 

Summary:   The judge at an interim hearing refused to vary the amount of child support payable by the father that was previously agreed to by the parties and confirmed in an earlier order. She quantified the amount of arrears at the time of the hearing before her and ordered that it be secured by the parties’ home until the trial which is set for September of this year.

 

Issue: Did the judge err in stating the amount of the arrears at the time of the hearing before her?

 

Result:        Appeal dismissed. The judge did not err. The issue of child support arrears from the time of the prior order can be dealt with by the trial judge.
