McCarthy v. Goroshin
Annotate this CaseIn 2011, Father and Mother were divorced pursuant to a divorce judgment. In 2015, the district court found Father in contempt for violating the divorce judgment. The court also denied Father’s motion to modify his child support obligation. The Supreme Court vacated in part and affirmed in part, holding (1) the court did not abuse its discretion by finding Father in contempt for nonpayment of child support for the years 2011, 2013 and 2014; (2) the court erred by finding that Father had not fully paid child support for 2012 and that he was in contempt for nonpayment for that year; (3) the court did not err by finding that there was no substantial change in circumstances warranting a modification of Father’s child support obligation; and (4) the court did not err by determining that Father was obligated to sell the marital home and to divide the proceeds pursuant to the terms of the divorce agreement.
