What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
The child support order is legally eff 2/1/2015 but the court date was not until 5/5/2015.
now that the amount has been decided they want me to pay back child support for the months of Feb, March, April while they were processing the case. Now i am swamped with back child support and they are garnishing my wages because of it.
I am just upset because the original support amount was calculated based on my income, but now that my income is being garnished shouldn't that change the support amount as well based on my new income being reduced?
any advice? should I appeal?
