In Re: The Paternity of A.B., N.W., and B.W. (Minor Children); Johnathan Brown (Father) v. Amy Warren (Mother)
24A-JP-1833
Juvenile paternity. Reverses the Hamilton Superior Court order denying Johnathan Brown’s motion to modify child support and finding him to be in contempt for failing to pay Amy Warren for their children’s past extracurricular activities. Finds the trial court clearly erred when it denied the father’s motion to modify child support and abused its discretion when it found the father to be in contempt. Remands with instructions for the trial court to: (1) hold a hearing for additional evidence to be presented on the relevant factors that the trial court should consider when determining the father’s potential income and to adjust its order as necessary to impute an appropriate level of potential income to the father based on that evidence; and (2) vacate that portion of its order that found the father in contempt for failing to pay the mother $3,647.75 for the past extracurricular activities and ordered the father to reimburse the mother $1,000 for the attorney fees that she incurred in bringing her contempt petition. Attorney for appellant: Brian DeHem. No attorney listed for appellee.
