Webb v. Webb
Annotate this CaseAnthony Webb appealed an order reducing child support arrearages to a written judgment in favor of his ex-wife, Kathy Webb. The circuit court awarded Kathy a judgment of $71,805. Anthony appealed, arguing that he paid the child support as it came due and that the passage of time should prevent Kathy from recovering. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding (1) because Anthony presented no testimony at trial, the uncontroverted evidence before the circuit court established the existence and amount of the unpaid child support obligation; and (2) the circuit court did not err by refusing to apply the doctrine of judicial estoppel or laches to Kathy's claim, nor did it abuse its discretion in denying Anthony's motion for new trial.
